Tars Lazzorda Nabs RU Top Skipper Award
It has been quite a few years since anyone but Far Mountain claimed the RU North. This year Tommaso Lazzorda guided his Taranto Tars to a magnificent season and toppled the Redhawks in a sterling duel by 3 games. Taranto was 93-61, while Far Mountain was 90-64. This is the first time Lazzorda has won the honor. Stacy Engel was the runner-up in the poll as his Claxton Diamonds shot up from seventh place to the top spot in the RU South with an 88-66 record. Marston's Johnny Walters was in the third spot. His Nine took another RU East crown with a 92-62 mark. Far Mountain's Alex Groveland wound up fourth in the voting. He did a great job considering he lost his number one pitcher to retirement and almost overcame the loss.

Carney Wins TU Best Manager Award
Joe Mac Carney mastermind the Ozarka Naturals rise from fifth to first this season in the Tycobbian Union and has been selected the Manager of the Year. Under Carney the Nats were 99-55, which was the best record in the IPA this year. He is a first-time winner of the award. Coming in second in the voting was Huggy Miller of the Cape Coral Hurricanes. He engineered a division title in the TU South with a 90-64 record. The 'Canes had finished fifth the previous season. Bay St. Clair's Guy Rondre was rated third in the poll. His Buccaneers climbed up from fifth to first in the TU East with an 86-68 mark.
