Captains named

The DWU baseball team recently announced it's captains for the 2013 season. Michael Lukkason and Nick Tadlock have been named for the second straight year. Lukkason, a SS, and Tadlock, an OF and DH, are great leaders, according to head coach Steve Gust "They do what it takes for the team to be successful," Gust said. "We expect them to step up their leadership even more this year." The pair have started for the Tigers for the last two seasons. Toby Kaplan was also named as he enters his second and final season with the Tigers. "Toby has established himself as one of the hardest working guys on the team," Gust said. "He is unselfish and committed to doing whatever it takes." On the pitching side, seniors Nick Pecha and Matt Mundfrom were given the nod from their teammates. "Those guys set the tone for this fall," Gust said. "We need our pitching staff to step up for us this year, and those guys did a good job of leading them."
