SCHOLAR ATHLETES OF THE MONTH OF MAY
Christie Beckley
Wesley Ulrich
Wesley Ulrich is a multi-year varsity player on the baseball team. Wesley plays right field and hits in the middle of our lineup. Wes possess one of the best throwing arms on the Cape and has developed such a reputation most teams do not ever try to test his arm. At the plate Wes is extremely patient, leading our team in walks with 17 and third in on base percentage at .514. In addition to being one of our core players Wes was also given the responsibility of being one of our team captains. Wes is a great role model for younger players, always leading by example and not being afraid to speak up when necessary. Having a player like Wes makes any coaches job easier. As good of a player Wesley is, he is an even better person and will be missed when he graduates and heads off to Florida Southern College in the fall.
