The third-place North Hills Hawks (84-70) had their best season since winning the TU North in 2016... the Hawks have been mostly a second-division club since then... North Hills has only been in the postseason twice and has never won the Pro Cup trophy... skipper Todd Simons energized them this year and they are trending up in the standings, but they still finished 11 games behind in the race... veterans Sam Tate (21-13) and David Michael (20-12) were the prime starters with help from a fine rookie Nelson Hopper (12-13), who compiled a 2.81 ERA... overall the Hawks were just a little bit above average... top bats were CF Clyde Chalmers (.301) and LF Ronnie Guillaume (.303).
