Wildcards' DJ Hill and Goon Squad's Josh Trim named ORWBL Rookies of the Year.

Throughout the week, the Old Republic Wiffleball League will be handing out its yearly honors. Today we announce the winners of the Most Improved Player awards from both the American and National League.
Starting in the American League, the 2020 AL Rookie of the Year award goes to Bourissa Hills star DJ Hill after putting together quite a memorable Rookie campaign.
After only playing in a couple of series last year, DJ Hill remained eligible to win the award in 2020 as he did not reach the required amount of at bats last season to qualify for the award.
With that being said, Hill came into this season determined to win that award. Playing for a Bourissa Hills team that had not experienced a winning season since 2010, Hill hoped that he could be the missing piece that this team had been missing.
The Wildcards started the season 2-10 during a 12 game homestand to start the season. Their luck shifted entirely in the 2nd half of the season as the Wildcards went 11-1 while doing all of that damage on the road.
Hill became the go to guy in an already loaded lineup as the entire Wildcards offense put together a 2nd half run for the ages. Despite missing 3 games, Hill finished as the team leader in batting average (.602), Home Runs (32), and RBI’s (71) as he undoubtedly became their top run producer across the board.
He finished near the top of the ORWBL leaderboard in batting average and RBI, finishing 3rd overall and 2nd in the American League in both categories.
On top of that, Hill was voted in as an American League All Star starter as he joined his fellow Wildcards team
