Congrats to all recipients. I got the chance to see several teams play this year and think it's fair to say almost every team in the league improved from last year. I am not familiar with all the kids, but I know McCaig from Cooter, Matthews and Weeks from Campbell, and Clark from Holcomb have battled it out in this conference for years. They are all outstanding kids who look to have bright futures in baseball. The Tri-County Conference will miss them greatly. Best of luck to all.

On the honorable mention, it is Cody Groves not Cody Grooves.
