Background info: Garry is an exceptional football player and will attend Bowling Green this fall to play football. Before he begins that collegiate career, though, he is having an outstanding baseball season. Among the leaders in the WPIAL with 61 strikeouts in just 44 innings, Garry also carries a .531 batting average into the season’s final weeks. He has 26 hits in 49 at bats, with six doubles, 17 runs, and 13 runs batted in.

Coach Bob Sawhill said: “Tanner is focused and definitely a leader. He and this group have been together for a long time and he’s definitely a leader. He’s a big time quarterback in football and a good wrestler. He’s just an all around goof athlete and a fierce competitor.”
