Twelve Bombers Selected For 2015 TCL All-Star Game Twelve Bombers Selected For 2015 TCL All-Star Game
Led By Head Coach Curt Dixon, Bombers All-Stars Look to Guide the North Squad to Victory
Bryan-College Station, TX (July 6, 2015) – On July 4, the Texas Collegiate League announced the rosters for the 2015 TCL All-Star Game, to be held at Riverside Stadium in Victoria, Texas.
The North-South format will be used again this year with the Bombers representatives joining forces with representatives from the Texas Marshals and East Texas Pump Jacks to form the North All-Star Team. The South will consist of representatives from the Acadiana Cane Cutters, Woodlands Strykers, and the host Victoria Generals.
The Bombers, who captured the first-half championship, after winning back-to-back TCL championships, lead all teams with 12 All-Stars. They will be led by head coach Curt Dixon, who will manage the North team.
Outfielders Blake Kopetsky and Matt Hilston were both selected to their second TCL All-Star Games. Kopetsky was selected as a starter and Hilston was selected as a reserve.
The North starting infield is laden with Bombers. The starting catcher for the North team is Henri Lartigue, who has hit two home runs and 13 RBI this season. He’ll be joined by first baseman Geonte Jackson, the league’s leading hitter with a .418 average. The left side of the North infield will consist of Bombers as well, with Garrett Benge at third base and Trent Goodrich, who is fifth in the TCL with 17 RBI, at shortstop.
Bombers catcher Tyler Lawerence will start at designated hitter. Second baseman Jimmy Norris, who is second in the TCL with 17 steals, join Hilston and his 21 RBI as North reserves.
The North pitching staff is led by Bombers right-hander C.J. Gregory, the TCL’s leader in both wins (seven) and ERA (0.36).
Bombers closer Brandon Pennington (5 saves), along with relief pitchers Nick Jones (1.25 ERA), and Dakota Mekkes (2.16 ERA) were all selected to be members of the North bullpen.
Last year’s TCL All-Star Game was won by the North, 7-3. Former Bomber G.R. Hinsley went 2-for-3 with a solo home run to take home MVP honors.
