Our Lady of Sorrows (OLOS) Cavaliers had only two losses this season,

unfortunately, we had to forfeit two games due to co-ed teams which

prevented us from going into the post-season. Next season we will

move into the higher/larger school division II. In so doing, we will

hopefully avoid the co-ed team situation. This year’s team was the

finest team OLOS has had in its 12 years. The pitching was remarkable

with Dominic Wantland and Joe Young being the primary starters with

the assistance of Vincent Dewitt. The team’s batting was by far the

best OLOS has had, scoring an average of 12 runs per game. While our

defense also was outstanding, only allowing an average of 3 runs per

game. A major factor in our offensive punch was not only our batting

contact but, even more so, our base-running. We had on average 8

steals per game. What was even more remarkable than our physical

play was the way we thought baseball. Baseball is a thinking game and

we demonstrated this throughout the season.
