From the mound, outfield or the plate, Gabe Benton got it done for Benjamin Russell. As a batter, Benton led his team in batting average (.426), hits (43), triples (10), homers (2) and total RBIs (43). Benton was also a stud on the mound with an ERA of 2.97 and a team second-best 43 strikeouts. Benton went 3-0 in the year, surrendering only 18 runs in 33 innings pitched. His junior year performance also gave him an AHSAA North-South All-Star nod.
