UH-Hilo’s Manago shares PacWest Player of the Year honor

UH-Hilo’s Manago shares PacWest Player of the Year honor

MEDIA RELEASE

(Editor’s Note – There was a tie in 2B voting resulting in two First Team selections, and as a result, no 2nd Team selection. There also was a tie in OF voting resulting in four First Team selections and two Second Team selections instead of three for each team).

PHOENIX, AZ – For winning the Pacific West Conference title and earning a berth in the NCAA Division II National Championship Tournament, Hawai‘i Pacific has been rewarded with eight All-PacWest First Team selections and a quartet of top awards doled out by the conference.

But the 2010 PacWest Player of the Year honor will be shared by Dixie State senior OF Brett Adams (Sandy, UT/Alta) and Hawai‘i Hilo junior OF Keoni Manago (Honolulu, HI/Roosevelt).

The PacWest media office in Phoenix, AZ, announced the honors on Wednesday, May 12, following a vote by the head coaches of the conference.

This marks the third year of the All-PacWest Baseball Team and the third time that Adams has landed on the squad. He was a First Team choice in 2008 and a Second Team member in 2009 before returning to the First Team this season.

In claiming his Co-MVP status, Adams compiled a .423 batting average in 50 starts, going 66 for 156 with 53 runs scored, 14 doubles, two triples, 17 homers and 64 RBI. He presently owns the highest slugging percentage in the conference, tops the league in home runs (by 5), runs scored and RBI, and is tied for second in walks with 29. He has a .515 on-base rate and has stolen nine bases.

Manago earned his third straight top award after claiming Player of the Year honors in 2009 and Freshman of the Year accolades in 2008. He also has made the All-PacWest First Team for the second straight season.

The junior outfielder is currently ranked sixth in hitting with a .403 average after going 60 for 149 at the plate. He has scored 29 runs, doubled seven times, ripped a triple and homered five times. He owns a .564 slugging rate, a .467 on-base mark, 16 walks, 12 steals and 36 RBI.

The rest of the awards went primarily to Hawai‘i Pacific thanks to junior hurler Caelan O’Meara (Windsor, CA/Santa Rosa), the PacWest Pitcher of the Year; junior pitcher Michael Greene (Longview, WA/Lebanon), the Newcomer of the Year; and Garett Yukumoto, the PacWest Coach of the Year.

HPU rookie Kale Sumner (Kailua, HI/Kailua) and Hawai‘i Hilo first-year player Joshua Wong (Mililani, HI/Kamehameha-Kapalama) will share the 2010 PacWest Freshman of the Year honor.

As the top votegetter among pitchers, O’Meara also was selected to the All-PacWest First Team after garnering Second Team honors last season. He posted a 6-1 record with a 3.94 earned run average in 10 starts. He also tossed four complete games and enters the post-season with 52 strikeouts and just 20 walks in 61.2 innings of action.

Greene also brings stellar stats into the post-season tournament for the Sea Warriors. He is presently ranked third in the conference in ERA with a 3.70 mark, while he has fanned 47 batters in 56.0 innings of action. He boasts a 6-2 record with three complete games in 10 appearances and nine starts. In his one relief appearance Greene earned a save. He was named All-PacWest Second Team for his outstanding 2010 campaign.

Yukumoto has led the Sea Warriors to an historic season. HPU becomes the first PacWest baseball team to make the NCAA II Tournament after posting a 37-10 overall record and a 27-4 PacWest mark. He led the Sea Warriors to their first PacWest title this year.

Sumner shares the freshman award after unleashing a monster season so far. He is currently hitting .420 in 47 starts after going 63 for 150 with 48 runs scored, 10 doubles, four triples and five home runs. He drove in 37 runs, walked 29 times and produced a .640 slugging mark and a .526 on-base average. For his outstanding season, Sumner was named the All-PacWest First Team First Baseman.

Wong hit .254 in 40 games and 38 starts for the Vulcans, going 32 for 126 with six doubles, 14 RBI and seven walks.

The All-PacWest First Team resembled a starting lineup for Hawai‘i Pacific. In addition to Sumner at first base, and O’Meara and Greene on the mound, HPU claimed second base, shortstop, third base and catcher on the First Team.

Senior Sean Winston (Richland, WA/Richland), a First Team choice in 2009, shared the All-PacWest Second Base position with Dixie State freshman Colton Yack (South Jordan, UT/Bingham) this spring. Winston batted .323 in 47 starts after going 51 for 158. He scored 45 runs, drove in 29 others, doubled seven times, smashed three triples, and homered once. He also was 12 for 12 in stolen base attempts and walked 23 times en route to a .436 on-base average. He produced a .424 slugging mark.

Yack batted .335 in 49 games and 48 starts, ripping 54 base hits in 161 at-bats. He scored 41 runs, drove in another 30, doubled 11 times, homered twice and tripled once. He recorded a .453 slugging rate, a .435 on-base mark, 12 steals and 27 walks.

The All-PacWest First Team Shortstop honor went to HPU senior Kenny Turner (San Carlos, CA/Junipero), while All-PacWest First Team Third Base award fell under the domain of junior Wade Tamaru (Aiea, HI/Mid-Pacific Institute).

Turner currently leads the PacWest in hitting with a .440 average. In 47 games and 46 starts, the senior has scored 37 runs, doubled six times, driven in 29 runs, walked 18 times and stolen 11 bases. He is 59 for 134 at the plate with a .519 on-base average and a .485 on-base mark. Of his 59 base hits, 53 are singles.

Tamaru has cultivated a .392 batting average in 42 games after going 49 for 125 with 27 runs and 29 RBI. He doubled six times, tripled once and has 11 walks. He has produced a .456 slugging rate and a .448 on-base mark.

Senior catcher Bas Nooij (Landsmeer, Netherlands/Caland Lyceum) rounds out the infield selections for HPU. In 45 games and 44 starts, Nooij has 59 base hits in 145 at-bats for a .407 batting average. He has scored 35 runs, driven in 42, and has smacked nine doubles, a triple and seven home runs. He owns a .628 slugging rate and a .485 on-base mark.

HPU sophomore OF Blake Amaral (Hilo, HI/Kamehameha Schools), an All-PacWest First Team choice last year, repeated as a First Team selection this season. In 2009 he was the PacWest Freshman and Newcomer of the Year.

Amaral is hitting right at .400 heading into the post-season, going 62 for 155 in 43 starts. He has scored 37 runs, doubled 18 times, roped seven homers and two triples, and chased home 50 RBI. He has 13 walks, six steals, a .460 on-base average and a .677 slugging rate.

HPU senior pitcher Danny March (Burlingame, CA/Burlingame) was named the All-PacWest First Team Reliever. He registered a 6-0 record with four saves during 15 relief appearances, striking out 36 batters in 35.0 innings of work. He allowed a 3.09 earned run average and a .189 batting average by foes.

The remainder of the First Team featured Hawai‘i Hilo senior OF Ronel Trias (Mililani, HI/University), who claimed his third All-PacWest awards, and a pair of Grand Canyon seniors in DH Colin Courtland (Litchfield Park, AZ/Millennium) and pitcher Jeff Urlaub (Scottsdale, AZ/Horizon).

Trias earned his second straight First Team selection after landing on the Second Team in 2008. He hit .340 this season in 44 starts, going 48 for 141 at the plate with 44 runs, 16 RBI, five doubles, a triple and 29 walks. He has 17 stolen bases and a .466 on-base average.

Vulcans sweep Academy of Art University Tuesday (May 4)

Vulcans sweep Academy of Art University Tuesday (May 4)

MEDIA RELEASE

The University of Hawaii at Hilo baseball team showed they could bounce back as they swept a Pacific West Conference doubleheader from the Academy of Art University, 7-6 and 5-2, at Wong Stadium in Hilo.

The Vulcans improve to 17-26 overall and 12-18 in the PacWest while the Urban Knights are 7-38 overall and 2-27 in the PacWest.

The series didn’t open well for the Vulcans as they helped the Urban Knights jumped out to a 3-0 lead after just one inning of play by committing a pair of errors.

Hitless through the first two innings, the Vulcans bombarded the Urban Knights in the third for six runs on four hits. With a pair of runners on base, Ronel Trias pulled the ball into the right field corner for an RBI and a stand-up double. A wild-pitch and pass ball later, the game was tied up. Keoni Manago continued the scoring with a solo homerun. With Shane Kessel on board on a single, T.J. Pilla hammered a shot over the left field fence.

Another pair of Vulcan errors, combined with three hits, knotted the score at 6-6 in the top of the fourth.

With two outs in the sixth, Trias singled and stole second. With Travis Ogimi at the plate, Trias broke for third base. Ogimi hit a hard bouncer that the Urban Knight shortstop couldn’t handle. Trias raced home for the winning run.

Trias and Manago paired hits for the Vulcans.

Ronnie Loeffler went five innings giving up 6 runs on 6 hits and a walk. He struck out two and was credited with no earned runs. Chris Pascual (2-2) picked up the win holding the Urban Knights hitless over the final two innings.

The Vulcans were baffled by Urban Knight pitcher Kallen Fletcher in the second game for five innings before the jumped all over reliever Darnell Quinney for five runs on three hits, two walks, a hit batter and an error.

Aaron Correa (4-2) picked up the win with a 7-hit, 8-strikeout performance over 6.1 innings. Tyler Simao picked up the save.
