Sidenbender to coach in All-Star Game
Brandywine coach David Sidenbender, who picked up his 300th career victory earlier this year, will be one of the coaches of the Michigan High School Baseball Coaches Association’s All-Star Game at Comerica Park in Detroit June 17.
The game will be played at 7 p.m. Tickets may be purchased at Comerica Park for $10.
Sidenbender was informed that he would be one of the coaches in February.
“It is a tremendous honor and I am really exited about it,” he said. “Getting to work a little with the best seniors in the State of Michigan is really awesome and also working with other coaches selected will be a great experience as well. It has just been a humbling year, 300 wins, a high state ranking and now this. I know not every coach gets to do these things so I feel so grateful and blessed.”
Among the players on the West All-Star roster is Watervliet’s Ashton Holdridge, who has committed to Arkansas Pine Bluff; Jordyn Muffley of Portage Central, who has committed to Parkland Community College; Luke Shaefer of Portage Central, who has committed to Central Michigan; Max Schuemann of Portage Northern, who has committed to Eastern Michigan; Jarod Burton of Gull Lake, who has committed to Central Michigan and Mattawan’s C.J.
