DIII BASEBALL COMMITTEE The NJCAA Division III Baseball Committee

is responsible for setting policies and procedures for the

approval by the NJCAA Board of Directors. This committee is

made up of NJCAA Region Directors, Assistant Region Directors

and the NJCAA Baseball Coaches Association President.

For the 2012 season, the NJCAA will release six

Division III baseball rankings on a bi-weekly basis at

the beginning of the season and then weekly the

last three weeks of the season based on the

following schedule: March 14, March 28, April 11,

April 25, May 9 and May 16. The final poll date is

determined by the start of the DIII World Series.

Each NJCAA Region Director with Division III

baseball will report the top teams in their respective

region to NJCAA Headquarters each Monday, which

is then compiled into a weekly region report. This

report is then sent out to the NJCAA Division III

voting panel, which consists of the eight District

Directors. Each District Director then compiles a Top

10 based on this report. (Rank order submitted by

each region is honored.) In order to be eligible for

ranking, a team first must have their schedule/

results and stats up to date on the NJCAA website.

They must also then be submitted by their region

director to the national office for poll consideration.

NJCAA Headquarters will compile all votes and

release the rankings to the public on each poll date

online at www.njcaa.org.

David Freese - World Series MVP

Former-St. Louis CC Player David Freese

Wins World Series MVP

St. Louis Cardinals’ third baseman David Freese was largely an unknown player entering the 2011 season. Little did the Cardinal fan base know that in October he would be raising the World Series MVP trophy. Following his heroics in the Fall Classic, Freese quickly became a household name that will be remembered in baseball lore for decades to come. Freese’s journey to the top of the baseball world began at St. Louis Communi-ty College - Meramec (Mo.). After suffering from a broken wrist during his freshman season, Freese had his coming-out party in 2004. With drastic improvements to his swing, Freese earned himself first-team spots on the All-Region, All-District and All-American teams. Following his commendable season at Meramec, Freese went on to finish his collegiate career at South Alabama where he was named Sun Belt Conference Player of the Year. Once Freese advanced to professional baseball, his stock began to rise as a up-and-coming prospect. The Cardinals thought so much of his abilities that they traded star outfielder Jim Edmonds for him prior to the 2009 season. Unfortunately, Freese suffered injury after injury and didn’t meet his high expectations until the 2011 season. During the playoffs, Freese boasted a .397 batting average and tied playoff records with 21 RBI’s, 50 total bases and 25 hits. Freese showcased his flare for the dramatic in Game 6 of the World Series. With the Rangers one strike away from becoming champions, Freese hit a two-run triple to tie the game and force extra innings. In the bottom of the 10th, Freese forced Game 7 with a walk-off home run. The game has largely been acclaimed as one of the greatest in the history of the World Series. Freese went on to bat in two runs in Game 7, as the Cardinals claimed their 11th World Series title in club history.

teams must have a .500 or better record 10 days prior to the start of district play. If the teams from Region

seed and will host the Region 5/MAC Conference fourth place team in a three game playoff. The other

team will host the Region 5/MAC Conference third place team in a three game playoff. If only one team

from Region 2 or Region 14 qualify for district play, that team will have a three game playoff with the Re-

gion 5/MAC Conference fourth place team and the Region 5/MAC Conference third place team will receive

an automatic bid to the District C Tournament. If no teams from Region 2 or Region 14 qualify for district

play then the top four teams from Region 5/MAC Conference will advance to District C Tournament.

North Arkansas’ Clark and Manchester’s Holland Named 2011 ABCA and Easton Players of the Year

The American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA), in conjunction with the NJCAA, selected Lester Clark (North Arkansas College) and Kyle Holland (Manchester CC, Conn.) as the 2011 Division III Players of the Year. Clark was named ABCA Player of the Year, while Holland was chosen as the Easton Defensive Player of the Year.

ABCA Division III Player of the Year Lester Clark (C - North Arkansas College)

Lester Clark, a freshman from Fayetteville, Ark., snatched up the proverbial Triple Crown in NJCAA Division III baseball and led the Pioneers to a 39-11 mark this season. The 6’2” catcher led the division with a .527 batting average, 74 runs batted in, and 13 homers. Along his journey of going 77-for-146 at the plate, Clark collected 51 runs, 24 doubles, one triple, and 22 walks in 42 games. A .900 stolen base percentage also allowed Clark to secure nine stolen bases.

With incredible offensive talent and an on-base percentage of .580, it is not surprising why Lester Clark was the Division III ABCA Player of the Year.

Easton Division III Defensive Player of the Year Kyle Holland (C - Manchester Community College, Conn.)

Kyle Holland, a freshman from Montville, Conn., helped defend his Cougars team by boasting a perfect 1.00 fielding percentage in 43 games this season. The 5’10” catcher collected 226 putouts and 29 assists without a single error recorded. Holland managed to throw out 17 of 28 (.607) base runners that attempted to steal and only surrendered three passed balls. He contributed to two double-plays this season as well.

Offensively, Kyle proved to be a serious threat, going 44-for-141 at the plate for a .312 average. He posted 39 runs, 18 RBI’s, and 22 stolen bases. Seven of his hits this year went for extra bases.

Holland was also named to the 2011 NJCAA DIII Rawlings Gold Glove® Team.

The Rawlings Gold Glove Award® is the benchmark of

excellence and performance on the diamond in Major

League Baseball. However, in 2007 the award began to

also symbolize the best of the best at the collegiate and

high school levels. For the fourth consecutive year,

college and high school players flashing serious leather

were awarded Rawlings Gold Glove Awards as Rawlings

celebrates its 53rd year of the Rawlings Gold Glove

Award®. In partnership with the American Baseball

Coaches Association (ABCA), Rawlings presented the first-

ever Rawlings Gold Glove Awards in 2007 to players in

NCAA Divisions I, II, and III; NAIA; NJCAA Divisions I, II, and

III; and High School.
