Hot Hitters: Little League Trio Wins Winter Slugging Competition

The temperatures have dipped to uncomfortable levels and the boys of summer are all packed up and waiting for the seasons to change.

But for a trio of Morristown American Little League members, getting better at the game they love is a year-round endeavor.

Devon Alexander, Jack Myers, and Ryan Cregan, all from Morris Township, were recently crowned champions of the Extra Innings Winter Hitting League, 3rd and 4th grade division. The trio took down two tough teams from Livingston in the final round on Monday, Dec. 8 to be crowned champions.

In addition, Myers was awarded the League Individual Batting Leader prize for most points scored over the entire season.

When the spring comes to Morristown Little League, three players will already be a step ahead of the game.
