ASBA 17U PROSPECTS TEAM
The All Star Team of the Week is the 17U Prospects Team coached by Mark Freed. At the Blue Chip Prospects National Tournament at Diamond Nation in Flemington, NJ, the team won their bracket and went 3-1 in pool play. The ASBA squad advanced to the quarterfinal round before losing in extra innings.
“We played great and the team’s energy was contagious,” said Freed. “We hit very well and came through in the clutch. Our pitching staff did a tremendous job with Sean O’Keefe and Taylor Wright combining on a no-hitter. Luke Alicknavitch and Derek Prucnal did a super job of pitching for us against very good competition.”
