On the diamond, two-way sophomore playmaker Dylan Williams has been a crucial component in Marathon Dolphins baseball’s 10-7 start. At press time, Williams leads the team in numerous statistical categories including batting average (.500), on-base percentage (.629), stolen bases (10), hits (23) and slugging percentage (.674), along with his dependable presence on the mound.
“Dylan has been a tremendous offensive weapon for us this season during his sophomore campaign,” said head coach Joey Gonzalez. “He consistently finds ways to barrel the ball and gets on base two to three times every game. He has also been extremely versatile defensively, seeing time at shortstop, working a low- to mid-80s fastball on the mound, and recently transitioning to the catcher role depending on our pitching situation.”
Williams’ stardom hasn’t gone unnoticed, as he is a nominee for the inaugural Florida Sports Programming Network’s FSPY awards. Vote for Williams to take home Sophomore Player of the Year out of 16 South Florida nominees by scanning the QR code and commenting with Williams’ name.
