05/14/2008 – Turks Tidbits

Congratulations to St. Joseph’s College RHP Chase Sonen for being named to the All-North Central Region Second Team. The junior right-hander from Cary, Illinois posted a 8-1 record this season with a 4.02 ERA, striking out 55 batters and walking just 12 in 71 2/3 innings. Sonen threw five complete games and three shutouts, limiting hitters to a .233 batting average against him. Coming off an injury last year, Sonen played a limited roll on the ’07 Turks pitching staff but still posted an impressive 2.65 ERA in 9 relief appearances and 17.0 innings with 1 save. Chase obviously is back at one hundred percent and ready to return to Harrisonburg and help the Turks bring home that Lineweaver Championship trophy. We welcome Chase back and look forward to an exciting summer of baseball with him and the rest of the 2008 Harrisonburg Turks.
