"As a Southern California guy who grew up playing the game, I am extremely excited for the opportunity to join a company as iconic as Easton," Harman said.

I look forward to continuing the steady flow of innovation that has become synonymous with Easton as well as growing the overall baseball and softball business of Performance Sports Group."

Harman replaces Cliff Hall who led the integration of Easton Baseball/Softball with Performance Sports Group.
