Joel earned his way on to the 11U AAA after a dominant season on the mound in 10U last year. His success on the mound carried over to this year. Joel pitched very well all season. His calm under pressure and consistency stood out all year. He always pitched with the game on the line and always delivered with a big K or getting a key ground ball. He was even awarded the defensive player of the game in the state tournament game he pitched against Westtonka At the plate Joel started out hitting the ball hard in a tough pitchers league. He had a mid-season swoon and struggled at the plate but ended the season on a roll. The highlight being hitting a ball off the top of the fence in his last home game - missing a HR by an inch. Great season Joel!
