CHARLOTTE — Dreams are coming true for an Ardrey Kell High School graduate and Queens University of Charlotte athlete.

The New York Yankees drafted Dillon Lewis in the 13th round of the MLB draft.

Lewis’ mom shared this photo of him in a Yankees uniform as a kid, writing on Facebook that it was his favorite childhood team.
