Let’s hear it for Max Mitchell, the Tuxedo Tornadoes Athlete of the Week for May 5!
A freshman standout on the JV baseball team, Max is making a name for himself early in the season, already notching a triple and a home run, proving he’s a force at the plate. Coach Matt Van Houten says Max is not only a powerhouse with the bat — he’s been lights out on the mound with 16 strikeouts so far this season.
“Max brings grit, talent and a team-first mentality every single day. He’s the kind of player every coach wants on the field.”
Way to go, Max! Keep bringing the heat!
