The 2022 NCBL Banquet is hours away, but we’re kicking NCBL Trophy Time off early with 69 Awards that most definitely won’t be handed out tonight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Batter of the Year, Pitcher of the Year, MVP; we’ve been there, we’ve done that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Feud of the Year, Upset of the Year, Beelen of the Year; this is the stuff you really want to see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LFG!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Greatest Championship Clinching Play<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 4 NCBL Championships were all clinched in different ways, but which one was the greatest?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Nominees are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Shawn Hopewell catches fly ball to center<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. John Mahoney RBI single to right<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Brendan Ellingham strikes out one of the Shaw\u2019s<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Joe Beelen pops out to second base<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Catching an easy pop-up\/fly-ball has been done a million times, and anyone can hit a single.  But striking out one of the best hitters on the best teams to win it all doesn\u2019t happen too often.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    WINNER: Brendan Ellingham strikes out one of the Shaw\u2019s<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n
