Alumni News, Flying High From Walla Walla To Germany

Andrew Johnson from last years MBC 16 team at a tournament in Walla Walla as a dead duck going into third



Andrew, always athletic, always spontaneous, decides not to go quietly


Facing an 8 on the scale of difficulty Andrew tucks it in for the final landing

Short story, he was still out

Do not try this at home, or on the way to third, Andrew is a mutant and although he may be imitated, he cannot be duplicated!

In other news base running mutant Jordan Turpen is playing baseball in Germany this summer. Strange as it seems Jordan fell in love with a German exchange student and left in early June for a summer in Germany. The parents of the young Fraulein have set him up with an 18 year old baseball team. Two players from this league have been drafted into US pro ball. I heard last night that in his first double header Jordan was 5-7 and scored every time he reached base. Showing the Germans what a real speedster can do on base!
