Three Mallards Earn a Spot as Northwoods League All-Stars<\/b><\/p>\n

Madison sends three players to All-Star game on July 19th\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Madison, WI \u2013 The Northwoods League All-Star squads were announced on Friday morning, featuring three Mallards on the Great Lakes roster that will compete against the Great Plains division from Witter Field in Wisconsin Rapids.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The first selection and only position player to earn an All-Star spot is catcher <\/span>Josh Caron<\/b>. Caron batted at a .310 clip while launching six home runs in the first half of play. The Sun Prairie native led the Ducks in hits, doubles, runs scored, walks, and runs-driven-in during an 18-18 start to the season. The product of the University of Nebraska played in the second half for the team last season and did not get a chance to be listed on the All-Star ballot in 2021 as a graduated high school senior.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The other two Mallards to be voted onto the All-Star roster by the media, front office, and coaches were both relief arms. The first of the two is closer <\/span>Bryce Woody<\/b>. Woody ranks in the top-5 in the league when it comes to slamming the door on the season with five saves. The redshirt senior from Lincoln Memorial University posted a sub-1 earned run average throughout the first 36 games of the year, striking out 36 and only walking 8. Woody had a performance out of the bullpen against the Kokomo Jackrabbits in mid-June where he struck out all six batters he faced to secure a win for Madison. The latter of the pitchers elected is the right hander from Delta State University, <\/span>Steven Lacey<\/b>. The combination of Lacey and Woody in the backend of the bullpen has been untouchable when used as a duo leading late in games. Lacey, who did not pitch much during his collegiate spring season at Delta State, impressed with his strikeout abilities, punching out 30 and walking just 6 batters. He\u2019s struck out at least one bat in each of his 11 appearances out of the arm barn this season.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The three Mallards will make the trip to Wisconsin Rapids over the All-Star Break which spans from July 18th through July 20th before returning to play the rest of the second half.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
