Morton Wins HSCL Manager of the Year Trophy Friday, June 16th , 2051 When Tony Morton was hired to lead the Saint Paul HS Ragin Cajuns, fans were expecting improvement over the last manager. Today, flanked by team officials, Morton accepted the High School CL Manager of the Year Award, noting the level of passion for the Saint Paul HS Ragin Cajuns. "The biggest challenge was the fans. I don't know how many times I was asked, if I thought the club was good enough. It was as if they expected failure. It was much easier to win over the ballplayers. Slowly but surely the fans began to believe in us." Morton led Saint Paul HS to a second place finish in the High School CL Northern Division. The Ragin Cajuns ended up with a 28-12 record. Morton is looking forward to the offseason. "We're reviewing our options. You never stand still in baseball. You either get better or worse, 'cause everyone else is out to get your free agents or deal for your prospects. It's going to be a challenge." But the skipper has more than proven he is equal to the task. |
