The Woodchucks put up franchise best numbers and made history all year long.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The return of Corey Thompson for his third season was something special. His coaching staff was much like 2022, with Nolan Atkins back for his second season and Kelton Caldwell back for his third. Gannon Ruckman joined the staff for his first season in the Northwoods.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Chucks finished the regular season with the most wins in a single-season in franchise history, with a record of 50-19. They beat out Madison for the #1 overall spot in the NWL, in a race that came all the way down to the wire in the very last game of the season. They returned to post-season play.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Chucks finished top 5 in most offensive categories, including 2nd in AVG and 4th in RBIs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-18557 size-medium alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.northwoodsleague.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2024\/08\/07252024_GB_0279-e1724076084637-206x300.jpg\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/assets.northwoodsleague.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2024\/08\/07252024_GB_0279-e1724076084637-206x300.jpg\" alt=\"Baseball player Max Galvin waving at fans\" width=\"206\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27206%27%20height%3D%27300%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20206%20300%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27206%27%20height%3D%27300%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.northwoodsleague.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2024\/08\/07252024_GB_0279-e1724076084637-200x291.jpg 200w, https:\/\/assets.northwoodsleague.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2024\/08\/07252024_GB_0279-e1724076084637-206x300.jpg 206w, https:\/\/assets.northwoodsleague.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2024\/08\/07252024_GB_0279-e1724076084637-400x582.jpg 400w, https:\/\/assets.northwoodsleague.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2024\/08\/07252024_GB_0279-e1724076084637-600x873.jpg 600w, https:\/\/assets.northwoodsleague.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2024\/08\/07252024_GB_0279-e1724076084637-704x1024.jpg 704w, https:\/\/assets.northwoodsleague.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2024\/08\/07252024_GB_0279-e1724076084637-768x1118.jpg 768w, https:\/\/assets.northwoodsleague.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2024\/08\/07252024_GB_0279-e1724076084637-800x1164.jpg 800w, https:\/\/assets.northwoodsleague.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2024\/08\/07252024_GB_0279-e1724076084637.jpg 938w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 206px) 100vw, 206px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Max Galvin led the pack in hitting with 84 hits, 18 doubles, and 13 home runs, far and away from any other Woodchuck. Galvin secured the franchise single-season record for RBI and tied the record for runs scored. In the overall ranking in the NWL he finished top 5 or 10 in most offensive categories, including 2nd for hits and home runs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">From the mound, the Chucks arms achieved greatness, finishing 3rd overall in ERA. They finished 2nd in strikeouts, and tied for first in wins. As a crew the Chucks pitching-staff also set a new franchise single-season record in strikeouts at 633, blowing the old record of 593 out of the water.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Individual stars from the mound were Adiel Melendez, Jorge Decardenas, and Carsen Plumadore, all of whom earned All-Star selections. Decardenas, despite leaving in the second half, still led the team in strikeouts with 49.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Chucks had a Great Lakes best seven All-Stars, with the Woodchucks coaching staff chosen to lead the Great Lakes division. Max Galvin (U of Miami), Max Soliz Jr. (Kansas) and Isaac Webb were the batters chosen. Adiel Melendez (U of Montevallo), Grant Seigel (UCF), Carsen Plumadore (Georgia Southwestern St.) and Jorge Decardenas (Charlotte) were the pitchers selected.
