ST. JOHN'S KELLEY COLLECTS RU ROOKIE AWARD
2036 - Art Kelley's first year in the IPA - will be long remembered. His St. John Crusaders won the division crown, league crown and were runner-up for the Pro Cup. Not only that, the Crusaders' 22-year-old center fielder par excellence was acclaimed the Ruthlandian Rookie of the Year. Kelley compiled a .309 batting average in 117 games with 33 homers, 92 RBIs and 89 runs.

Two freshmen pitchers, Earl Marley of the Stoner Stars and Shane Tollivar of the Grand City Cybercats, finished second and third in The Islandian Times poll. Closer Marley had an excellent season with a 12-8 mark, 2.80 ERA and 19 saves in 60 relief appearances for the fifth-place Stars. Tollivar paced the seventh-place Cybercats with a 15-11 record and a 2.78 ERA.

RED SOX'S KELSO BEST FROSH IN TYCOBBIA
Red Bluff's talented outfielder David Kelso's career got a big boost this season. The 21-year-old freshman performer hit .300 for the third-place Red Sox, poled 39 home runs, drove in 102 and scored 89 runs, while playing in 131 games. These fine numbers did not go unrecognized - Kelso received the Tycobbian Rookie of the Year Award as the league's best newcomer.

100-mile an hour fireballer Sal Mays of the Blue Lake Blue Sox was the rookie runner-up to Kelso. Mays chalked up 20 victories and 11 losses in his first season with 203 strikeouts and a 3.62 ERA for the Blue Sox, who came in second to the Pro Cup-winning North Hills Hawks. Number three in the voting was 19-year-old La Claire backstop Weldon Waller. He ripped IPA pitching for a .339 batting average with 13 roundtrippers, 54 runs batted in and 62 runs scored in 119 games. The Lynx came in third to Chicopee in the TU West.
