18U All Tournament Team

By: PW Staff

1st Team All Tournament

C - Tim Remes (MVP), SF Elite Squad Red
-- Remes is the easy choice for All-Tournament catcher after his MVP Performance.

1B - Bryan Mathews, World of Baseball Nationals
-- Mathews lead the tournament in batting average hitting .636 over the course of the week. Mathews recorded at least 1 hit in every game played.

2B - Blake Prince, Orlando Scorpions Black
-- Blake's name is peppered all over the leaderboard. His 10 hits tied for the most in the tournament, his .625 average was 2nd best in the tournament, his 7 RBIs was good for 4th best, his 7 runs scored was 3rd best, and his 3 doubles were 2nd best.

SS - Austin Slater, Orlando Scorpions Purple
-- Not only are Slater's stats very good, but his hits came at the right time. He hit .500 for the tournament (7th best), added a homerun and a triple, was 2nd in RBIs, lead the tournament in hits (10), lead the tourney in stolen bases, and hit 3 hole on the state runners up.

3B - Dexter Price, Diamond Vision Elite
--Dexter's .500 average during the tournament was tops for third basemen.

OF - Jack Crittenberger, SF Elite Squad Red
-- Crittenberger was the catalyst for the state champs. His 11 runs scored lead the tournament and he continued to set the table for RBI opportunities for Tim Remes and co.

OF - Aldo Ferrante, World of Baseball Nationals
-- Ferrante had the 3rd highest batting average in the tournament hitting .600 for the week and helped his team advance out of their bracket.

OF - Zeke DeVoss, Orlando Scorpions Black
-- The future University of Miami OF lead the tournament in homeruns with 2, hit .583 (4th best), was 2nd in runs scored with 10, and lead the tournament in stolen bases with 6.

UTIL - Kenny Keri, SF Elite Red
-- Keri's .455 average at the plate was one of the tournament leaders. His 7 IP, 7 hits, 1 run, and 9 Ks in the bracket championship game kept his team in the game at 1-1 and forced extra innings. Without Kenny Keri's performance on the mound in that game, the Elite were facing elimination from the Pokers.

P - Jimmy Hodgskins, Orlando Reds
--The Troy-bound lefty Hodgskins probably had the outing of the tournament going complete game, 7IP, allowing just 2 hits, 0 runs, only 1 walk, and 13 punchouts.

P - Tony Mollica, World of Baseball Nationals
-- Mollica had an outstanding opening to the tournament going 6 IP, 1 hit, 0 runs, 1 walk, and 10 Ks. And then came in to close the bracket championship for 1 inning - recording all 3 outs via strikeout in a 1 run game to notch the save.

P - Clay Chapman, Orlando Scorpions Purple
-- Chapman lead the tournament in innings pitched, wins, and managed to rack up 10 strikeouts. His semi-final pitching performance over the Florida Bombers held a potent Bombers lineup in check over 5 innings of work to help the Scorpions advance to the championship game. Through 9 innings, Chapman sported a 2.80 ERA.

P - Patrick Grady, SF Elite Squad Red
-- Grady's performance as a position player and pitcher was one of the main reasons the Elite ran through the tournament undefeated. Grady came clutch down the stretch going 5 innings of shutout ball in the opening Finals round vs. PW Tampa. He closed the semi-final game and then notched a save in the championship. Grady made an appearance in each of the final 3 games for the Elite on the mound during single elimination baseball.

P - Brett Winger, Orlando Scorpions Black
-- Brett's 1.17 ERA was 3rd best, his 10Ks were 4th best and he was a workhorse on the mound going 8.2 innings, pitched - just 1 out away from the tournament leader.
