Chance started his collegiate baseball career at Neosho County which is a Division I community college in the Jayhawk Conference. He earned All-League, All-District and All-Area honors as a senior at Lee’s Summit North High School in Missouri. Coach Fleenor said, “Chance is currently being recruited by several Top 25 college programs.” A good season with the Bombers should help him in his selection of a Division I school. Chance finished this past season with a 2-5 record. He started nine games and pitched 48 innings with a 5.21 ERA.
