We had the season-ending Linn-Mar Baseball Banquet tonight at the high school. The dish-to-pass didn't disappoint and there was plenty of food to feed the 8th grade through varsity baseball teams!
At the end of the evening they handed out the awards. The season was a little disappointing regarding wins and losses. But we are proud of Jon and how he persevered through the difficulties, never complaining. He finished hitting .333 and led the team in stolen bases.
And this evening, Jon was rewarded for his hard work and positive attitude. He was voted to the Mississippi Valley Conference All-Academic team. And he was voted by his teammates as the Most Valuable Role Player. Coach Lechner said that "Jon is the nicest player he has ever coached."
Way to go Jon! You have been an inspiration to all who watched you play this year. Thanks for giving your best, working hard, and doing it all with a positive attitude. In the score that matters most, you are a winner in every way!
