Past Season's Recipient

Galen Hudel
Waterloo 13U Tier 1
2022
As a catcher and playing 1st base, Galen has had a monster year for the 13U AAA Waterloo tigers. He is an imposing figure in the batter’s box and has terrorized opposing pitching all year long, finishing with 29 home runs and 88 RBIs. He led the team in most offensive categories and one of the highlights of his season was hitting two grand slams on the same day against Peterborough and Riverside (the two teams representing Ontario at the 13U National Championships). Galen was selected by Riverside to participate in the 13U Canadian National Championships.
