Baseball at the D2 Tournament- Final Update

*Note: stats shown are just since 2011 
The baseball team wrapped up competition at their second D2 tournament appearance in four seasons with a second loss against Wingate in as many games. 
There are six seniors on the roster who've made a lot of contributions to the program during their time in the Enchanted Valley. I don't know which of them won't return next year due to the extra year of eligibility given to all student-athletes but let's 
Outfielder Logan Worley has appeared 182 times for the Mountain Lions. His fielding percentage of .984 is tied for third-best with Cole Jackson and the only two with better percentages are current assistants Dahlton Cash and Cory Ewald. He's in the top five in hits (216) and runs scored in addition to being second on the HBP list with 28 and on the stolen bases list with 35. 
Left-Hander Ryan Inches has struck out 30 across 34 innings as he's appeared 23 times, with 11 appearances coming in 2022.  
Infielder Noah Fitzgerald has recorded 132 hits at a .328 clip and scored exactly 100 times. In addition, he's started all 98 of his appearances with 58 of them coming this season. 
Catcher/Infielder Jackson Jones is a member of the 200 Club as he's appeared 204 times for Young Harris. He's in the top five in hits (225), doubles (45), home runs (34), runs batted in (161) and total bases (374). He's scored 142 runs and is the record-holder for walks drawn with 116. 
Right-Hander McLain Harris, as previously mentioned, has the most pitcher appearances with 103, the most innings pitched with 291 and 2/3, the second-most strikeouts with 279, the most wins with 20 and the most saves with 25. He's also the only member of the 20-20 club (20 wins and 20 saves) and the first 20-win pitcher of Young Harris' NCAA era. 
Right-Hander Chad Brown has started 19-of-22 appearances and he's entered the top fifteen with 103 and 2/3 innings pitched and 91 ground-outs in addition to 76 strikeouts. His 124 fly-outs is currently eleventh in team history.

Starting a 200 Club: Softball

Jackson Jones is a member of this club as he's appeared 204 times for the baseball team. In this blog post, though, I'm looking to add names to the list and I'm starting with the softball alumni.  Grace Botti appeared 222 times between 2016 and 2019  Murphy Davis appeared 214 times between 2015 and 2018 Sarah Magill appeared 205 times between 2013 and 2016  Chandler Stooksbury appeared 208 times between 2014 and 2017  Jill Torres appeared 244 times between 2017 and 2021 Haylie Shope , if pitcher and first base appearances are separate, had 183 appearances at first base and 34 in the circle for 217 total. We then add 47 appearances in basketball and she appeared 264 times overall between 2018 and 2021 (she's in the 200 club with the 47 basketball games played as she's at 230 without the pitching appearances).  So thus far, this is the 200 Club: Grace Botti Murphy Davis Jackson Jones Sarah Magill  Haylie Shope  Chandler Stooksbury Jill Torres

Women's Lacrosse: Career Goals Update

If the season is over (and if she's not returning for her grad year), senior attacker Ashlyn Fraley will finish up a 71-game Young Harris career with 136 goals, the fifth-most in Mountain Lion women's lacrosse history. Only Nicole Kernohan, Kendra Parenteau, Taylor Greenberg and Ella Hancock have scored more.   *It's worth noting, however, that Fraley is the only person in the top five in terms of goals to need less than 200 shots on goal to get her goals- she only need 199 shots on target, so she scored on an impressive 68% of her shots on frame.
