Stephen is another player in his first season with the Knights after moving on from Orleans Little League.
He led, or was near the top, in RBIs each season during his years with Orleans.
A confident hitter, Stephen shows a good eye at the plate and he’s not one to let good pitches pass without taking his rips. Thanks to his size and aggressive swing, he hits the ball very hard.
Stephen is usually a quiet influence on his teammates, leading by example. As an outfielder, he shows great hustle on every play and has a solid arm from the field.
His favourite moment was back in 2007, when he knocked in the winning run as Orleans beat rival Kanata in a key summer-league game.
Stephen is also a talented basketball player, starting for five years with the Gloucester Wolverines. The Wolverines won an Ontario championship with Stephen as a starting power forward.
