Meet the Wildcats

Jeremy...bats leadoff (P, RF)...has been a welcome late addition at the plate & in the field, as well as providing lots of team spirit. Excellent baserunner.

Nick...1B...usually bats second, sometimes pitches & plays outfield...has been an above average player, playing most of the year wearing an ankle brace. Co-captain.

Audie...SS/P/sometime OF...a more consistent SS than Will, has had an overall better year offensively & defensively than last. Has had ups & downs pitching, like last year.

Anthony...3B/RF...hits the ball hard most at-bats, though unluckily right at people the first month and a half. Makes many plays at third, though he looks uncomfortable running bases.

Will...has played every position except RF for the Wildcats. Coach pitches him mostly in relief. Has had his best year ever catching...blocking pitches, throwing out runners, and fielding bunts.

Chris...CF/P...also has had a much better all-around season than last year. I had never seen him pitch before, and he's done well.

Ritchie...P/OF/2B...also has been given more chances & has come through in all areas.

Michael...2B/RF/P/C...MOP of the tourney championship game, he wears it on his sleeve when he struggles.

Andrew...LF/P (but can play every position)...he has proved he can contribute everywhere, he doesn't back down at the plate. One of the team's best baserunners and fielders.

Jared...2B/P/RF...has also improved offensively, defensively, and pitching this year...playing more confidently as well.

Trey...3B/1B/C...keen eye at the plate, he gets his cuts. Heads up in the field as well.

Vince...C/RF...was becoming a lefty force at the plate when he broke his thumb, causing him to miss a month. Did well behind the plate, allowing Will and Audie to play the field at the same time.

Bryce...last year's leading hitter hurt his hip at the beginning of the season...his pitching has also been missed.
