Edenton Steamers News Release


EDENTON, - NC - Perhaps the best statistical season in Steamer franchise history came to a close with an 11-3 win over the Outer Banks DareDevils on Tuesday.

The Steamers broke eleven team franchise records in 2011, including consecutive winning seasons, winning percentage, wins in a season, runs scored, triples. RBI, total bases, stolen bases, slugging percentage, on-base percentage and walks.

Along with the team franchise records that fell, some individual marks were set in 2011 as well. Joey Wendle, out of West Chester University (PA) tied the Steamers franchise record for batting average (.377 by Brett Nomenson in 2008), set new standards for hits in a season (81) and assists by a second baseman (158), as well as total bases (109). Ryan Brenner (Miami of Ohio) set a new Steamer franchise mark in stolen bases with 35 and put-outs by an outfielder with 124. Dustin Quattrocchi became the most used Steamer in their history, making 36 appearances out of the bullpen in 2011.

Perhaps the most impressive accomplishment in 2011 for the #1 nationally ranked Edenton Steamers is their 25-3 second half record. With their defeat of Outer Banks to end the regular season, the steamers set a Coastal Plain League record for wins in half with 25.
