Best IPA Hurlers Selected, Whitaker and Chylak
This year's top twirlers have been proclaimed in the Islandian Pro Alliance. In a poll released today by The Islandian Times Kilkenny's superb right-hander Dave Whitaker and Hartsdale's Lou Chylak came away with this year's Golden Arm Awards.

Whitaker copped the Ruthlandian Award with a 21-15 record for the Cats, who came in second in the RU North pennant race this year. Whitaker chalked up an impressive 2.39 ERA with 216 Ks in 305 innings pitched with 5 shutouts.

The number two votegetter was Killara Bardo of the Wynnamac Sundowners. The 22-year-old right-hander was 22-9 for the year with a 2.56 ERA and 229 strikeouts in 253 innings. Bardo made 33 starts and put up 3 shutouts for the second place Sundowners. They were the runner-up in the RU East. Bardo tied Sugar Valley's Benny McConnell for the most wins in the RU this season.

Third place went to young Ryan Janssen of the LaGrange Sports. Janssen was 19-12 in his third IPA season with a great 2.39 ERA and 7 shutouts. Janssen fanned 244 in his 290 innings. Teams only batted .220 against him. The Sports were third in the RU North standings.

The Tycobbian Golden Arm Award went to Hartsdale's Lou Chylak, an important ingredient in the Hellcats first-place finish in the TU North. Chylak rang up a 22-11 mark with a 2.52 ERA.

He edged out Mackie McGinnity of the Colchester Elites, the third-place club in the TU South. McGinnity stood out with a 23-7 record and tied with Southport's Dan Pascioni for the most victories in the IPA. McGinnity whiffed 225 batters in his 308 innings and made 38 starts. The 24-year-old fired 5 shutouts in his third year in the league.

Southport's youthful Don Pascioni was 23-9 for the year with a strong 2.71 ERA and 22 complete games in 39 starts. At 22 he has already logged five seasons in the league. Pascioni and McGinnity paced the IPA with 23 wins each. The Sun Sox battled for the pennant in the TU South, but came out second to winning Ginza.
