The End of Fall Ball

Malibu ended its fall season yesterday with a 7-4 victory over Crespi. Jacob Perrin, Michael Gwyn, Jace Dispenza, and Colbie Bell shared the pitching duties. Stephen Williams led a 15-hit Shark attack with two doubles, a triple, and a single in four trips to the plate.

Greg Kernodle finished the season with the Sharks' top batting average (.438) among players with over 10 at bats. (Michael Gwyn, who missed much of the season due to football and a knee injury, was four-for-eight with two doubles.) Stephen Williams finished with a .429 batting average and a .714 slugging percentage thanks to thirteen total bases (2 singles, 2 doubles, 1 triple, and 1 homerun) in seven at bats over two games against Crespi.

The Sharks will next be in action in January during several preseason tournaments.
