King played college baseball for the Vanderbilt Commodores for three seasons. He was primarily used as a relief pitcher.[1] As a sophomore, King made 21 appearances with three starts and posted a 1–4 record with a 3.46 ERA and 51 strikeouts in 52 innings pitched.[2] In 2018, he played collegiate summer baseball with the Chatham Anglers of the Cape Cod Baseball League.[3]
