Grant High School baseball made a memorable run to the 6A state championship game after winning the PIL crown, so it’s no surprise to see the Generals up and down the All-PIL list.

The Generals earned 11 spots across the first and second team, as well as the honorable mention list.

They also cleaned up in the top honors with senior Kaeden Cruse being named the Co-Player of the Year alongside Ida B. Wells senior Cody Roletto.

Cruse finished the year batting .443 with 12 home runs, 38 RBIs and a .540 on-base percentage. He also pitched a little bit, throwing 12 innings with a 2.33 ERA and seven strikeouts.

Roletto had quite the year at the plate as well, batting .484 with 93 at-bats, adding in 39 RBIs, with three home runs and a .505 OBP.

Grant also took home the Pitcher of the Year honor with senior Cooper Yudhishthu dominating all season. He finished the year with 70.2 IP and had a 2.28 ERA with 92 strikeouts compared to 31 walks.

Guiding that Generals club was Matt Kabza, who was named the Coach of the Year with Grant going 22-8 overall, winning the PIL with a 13-1 record and taking second in the state tournament, the Generals first time in the state title game since 1958.

Wells was next on the All-PIL leaderboard with nine positions earned, followed by Lincoln with eight spots, Roosevelt with seven, McDaniel with four, Cleveland and Jefferson tied with three apiece and Franklin with one.
