Shelby Kennedy (Yale)
The Ivy League announced their weekly awards on Monday and former Cienega standout Shelby Kennedy earned Ivy League Honor Roll recognition.
Kennedy played in nine games last week, batted 333 (8-for-24), scored three runs, had four RBI, two walks, one stolen base, a .393 on base percentage and a .333 slugging percentage.
This list was updated all year in an effort to recognize all former local prep stars who had gone on to achieve either academic and/or athletic awards at the next level. These are not high school awards but college and professional awards. NOT CHAMPIONSHIPS. If you are aware of anything I have missed along the way, please let me know.
