Hawkeyes players honored

Two Cooperstown Hawkeyes players earned Second Team All-League honors from the New York Collegiate Baseball league on Monday.

Shortstop Alex Todd and outfielder Ryan Avery were selected for the team. Todd hit .295 in 38 games, with 13 doubles, three home runs and 27 RBIs. He also scored 40 runs and had a .445 on-base percentage.

Todd was named the Hawkeyes MVP, and manager Jake Dennstedt said he was the best shortstop in the league and the backbone of Cooperstown’s team. Avery batted .310 in 31 games. He had eight doubles, three triples and two home runs, while scoring 30 runs and scoring 16 runs. He had a team-high .483 on-base percentage.

Cooperstown went 21-23 this summer, including a first round loss to eventual league champion Amsterdam in the first round of the NYCBL playoffs.
