Carson Hansen developed into a talented and high-producing contributor in his two seasons at Milwaukee after receiving little recruiting interest out of Pewaukee (Wis.) High School.

I sat down with Carson Hansen to discuss his development in college, his decision to transfer to Kentucky and his baseball career goals.
