Lennerton, a 27-year-old from Langley, played in the Langley Blaze organization. After graduating from Brookswood Secondary, he spent time at El Paso Community College and then Oregon State University, where he helped the Beavers win the 2007 U.S. College World Series.
Lennerton was a 33rd draft pick of the Tigers in the 2008 Major League Baseball draft. He was previously selected in the 2004 draft by Toronto in the 50th round and the 41st round of the 2005 draft by Milwaukee, but did not sign with either team, opting to attend school instead.
