Conan Tyler vs. Swink - Welcome back Conan Tyler!!! Conan was cleared to return to action this week, and he did so
with a bang. Conan collected 4 hits in 7 at bats driving in 5 runs. He started our rally in the 5th inning of our 11-5 win vs.
Swink.
The Athlete of the Week for Trojan Track and Field is Kevin Nevland. Kevin has worked hard to improve in all of his
events. That hard work paid off this week as he PRed in both the 100 and 200 just missing out on placing in League.
Kevin continues to improve his attitude and as that improves so does his performance. Keep it up, Kevin.
