All-Free Press baseball/softball winners

Ryan Herman | Prep Baseball, Prep Softball, Preps | Saturday, June 6th, 2009

There was just too much equal talent across the baseball diamond this season to have one Player of the Year — so The Free Press chose three:

  •  Josh Lovick, SS, junior, Kinston (.590 avg., 26 runs, 26 RBIs, 2 HRs, 15 SB)
  • Lee Taylor, P/OF, senior, South Lenoir (.463 avg., 31 runs, 31 RBIs, 4 HRs
  • Mike Wetherington, P/C, senior, North Lenoir (8-1, 2.79 ERA, 101 Ks, 25 BBs)

In softball, one player stood out with both her arm and her bat:

  • Faith Turner, P/1B, sophomore, South Lenoir (11-2, 1.15 ERA, 93 Ks, 39 BBs; .429 avg., 19 RBIs)

For his turnaround of a below-.500 program a year ago, Greene Central’s Scott Jones is our baseball Coach of the Year.

For their consistent play from last year with extremely young 2009 teams, Heather Carson of North Lenoir and Lisa Smith of South Lenoir are our softball Co-Coaches of the Year.

For more details on these individual accomplishments, and for the full All-Free Press teams, be sure to pick up a copy of Sunday’s edition of The Free Press.
