COACHES AWARD
IN MY 30 YEARS OF COACHING, THE COACHES AWARD HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE MOST MEANINGFUL AND BIGGEST DEAL TO ME. THIS AWARD IS NOT DETERMINED BY NUMBERS, BUT CRITERIA THAT FOCUSES MORE ON THE QUALITIES THAT ARE WAY MORE IMPORTANT THAN STATS. IT'S NOT JUST WHAT HAPPENS ON GAME DAY THAT IS IMPORTANT, BUT WHAT HAPPENS IN PRACTICE, AND OFF THE FIELD. THIS PLAYER DEMONSTRATES THE QUALITIES THAT WE WANT A DEL VAL BASEBALL PLAYER TO REPRESENT. MANY OF THESE QUALITIES AND CHARACTERISTICS ARE INGREDIENTS TO SUCCESS AND WHAT WE WANT ALL OF OUR PLAYERS TO LEARN AND TAKE WITH THEM FOR A LIFE TIME.
CRITERIA FOR THE COACHES AWARD
HAVING A PASSION FOR WHAT THEY DO, LEADERSHIP, EXCEPTIONAL CHARACTER, DEDICATION, COMMITMENT, PUNCTUALITY, SPORTSMANSHIP, WORK ETHIC, BEING A GOOD TEAMMATE, BEING POSITIVE, DEALING WITH ADVERSITY, HAVING A POSITIVE IMPACT ON OTHERS (NOT JUST ON THE BASEBALL TEAM), EMPATHY, ABLE TO BUILD POSITIVE RELATIONSHIPS AND A POSITIVE CULTURE WITH OTHERS, GROWTH, CONSISTENCY, SUPPORTIVE, MENTAL TOUGHNESS, ACCOUNTABILITY, GRIT, AND STEPPING UP TO MEET CHALLENGES. LASTLY, I CONTINUALLY TELL OUR PLAYERS THEY ARE IN CONTROL EVERY DAY OF THEIR ENERGY, ATTITUDE, AND EFFORT. THIS PLAYER NOT ONLY BROUGHT A HIGH ENERGY, A POSITIVE ATTITUDE, AND GAVE 110% EFFORT EVERY DAY, BUT ALSO MEETS ALL OF THE CRITERIA ABOVE!

MOST VALUABLE PLAYER
RYAN AUTEN
SOPHOMORE ACE RYAN AUTEN IS OUR 2024 DEL VAL BASEBALL MVP. RYAN WAS A 6 TIME TERRIERS GAME MVP, A CONFERENCE PITCHER OF THE WEEK TWICE, AND A DEL VAL ATHLETE OF THE MONTH OF MAY. ON THE MOUND RYAN THREW 37 INNINGS, WITH 65 STRIKEOUTS, 13 EARNED RUNS, AN ERA OF 2.46, AND A 3-2-1 RECORD. AT THE PLATE RYAN HAD A .291 BATTING AVERAGE, .490 OBP, 16 HITS, 11 WALKS, 12 RBI, AND 7 RUNS. RYAN WAS OUR NUMBER 1 PITCHER AND GAVE US A GREAT CHANCE TO WIN EVERY TIME HE TOOK THE MOUND. AT THE PLATE RYAN USUALLY HIT IN THE 4/5 SPOTS, AND WAS CONSIDERED ONE OF OUR TOP HITTERS.
MOST OUTSTANDING OFFENSIVE PLAYER
JACK REARDON
SENIOR CAPTAIN JACK REARDON HIT ALL YEAR IN THE 3/4 SPOT. THESE ARE TWO OF THE MOST DIFFICULT SPOTS TO HIT IN THE BATTING ORDER. IT REQUIRES A BATTER TO BE MORE DISCIPLINE, PATIENT, BE ABLE TO HANDLE THE CURVEBALL, OFF SPEED, AND BE MORE OF A COMPLETE HITTER. THESE SPOTS IN THE BATTING ORDER ARE USUALLY THE MORE EXPERIENCED HITTERS. JACK LED THE TEAM IN RBIs WITH 18, HAD A BATTING AVERAGE OF .345, AND ON BASE PERCENTAGE OF .600, SLUGGING PERCENTAGE OF .509, HE HAD 19 HITS, 3 DOUBLES, 2 HR, 12 WALKS, 2 HBP, 11 RUNS.
MOST OUTSTANDING DEFENSIVE PLAYER
STOY FOHRING
THE CATCHER POSITION HAS THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF DIFFICULTY, RESPONSIBILITY, LEADERSHIP, AND COMMUNICATION. FOHRING EXCELLED IN ALL OF THESE AREAS, AND MADE THE CATCHER POSITION A STRENGTH FOR OUR DEFENSE.
