The Bears made it back-to-back state championship titles by defeating Bartlett in the State Championship game 7-3 in a come from behind victory.
 
Led by the all-senior infield of Evan Scandling, Nick Wolf, Zach Kohan, and Joe Ayers, the Bears stormed through southeast play, only dropping one game all season. This infield was considered by some as the best high school infield ever assembled in Alaska.

They entered the state tournament by knocking off Lathrop 7-0, behind a five-hit, 11 strikeout shutout performance from Zach Kohan. The Bears followed with a 7-3 comeback victory over Bartlett, to give them the state title. Junior submarine pitcher, Matt Greely fired five plus shutout innings of relief, fanning seven Bartlett batters, to record the win. The Bears trailed 3-0 in the
early innings but were able to rally behind  Baun and Scandling, who each drove in two runs. CJ Keys provided a spark out of the nine slot, adding three hits and three runs scored for the Bears.


Ayers, Baun, Kohan, and Evan Scandling were all named to the All-State Tournamnet team.

                                                Team and Individual Statistics

NOTE: Individual batting statistics listed below are based on players with at least 35 at bats AB.

The 2007 SE Regional Championship and State Champion Crimson Bears' Baseball season records are:

Batting Average = H / AB   
(H=Hits) / (divided by) (AB= At Bats)

TEAM Batting Average
= 156/405= .385

Leaders:
Bud Baun .477
Zack Kohan .444
Evan Scandling .442
Joe Ayers .420
Nick Wolf
.409

The better hitters have batting average of .300 or higher. However some hitters may hit lower than .300 but hit more timely hits than hitters with higher batting averages, for example hit when runners are on base or in scoring position or hit to keep a rally going.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On Base % = (H+BB+HP) / (AB+BB+HP+SF)
(BB=Base on Balls) (HP=Hit by a pitch) (SF= Sacrifice Fly Out).

TEAM On Base % = 156+68+8 / 405+68+8+2 = .480 

Leaders :
Bud Baun .582
Evan Scandling .576
Nick Wolf .571
Joe Ayers .555
Zack Kohan
.497                  
                     
(The career highest OB% belongs to Ted Williams at .482).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------Slugging % =(1B+2x2B+3x3B+4xHR) / AB 

(1B=singles) (2B=doubles) (3B=triples) (HR=Home Runs).

TEAM Slugging % = 100+74+12+60 / 405= .607

Leaders:
Zack Kohan .956
Bud Baun .795
Evan Scandling
.721
                     


(At the major league level the slugging % is in the .500 to .700 range. The career highest Slugging % is held by Babe Ruth at .690).

Contact Rate = (AB minus K) / AB 
(K=Strike Outs)

TEAM Contact Rate =405-40 / 405= .901 
                 
Leaders:
Evan Scandling .953
Joe Ayers .920
Zack Kohan .911
Bud Baun .909
                      
(The major league contact rate level is at 80%. However batters who are hitting .300 or better are in the 90% range) (source: Ron Shandler USA Today 4/17/2008).

============================================

NOTE: all the individual pitching stats listed below are based on pitchers who pitched at least 16 innings .

Pitching Statistics: 
Won-Lost     ERA     WHIP       Ratio K/BB     Opp. BA     Pitches per inning
TEAM
15-1           2.70      1.233         2.37            .189                 15

Zack Kohan                

5-0               0.56     .8800          3.2             .135                14
Matt Greely

ERA=(ER x 7) / IP (Earned Runs x 7 innings (in high school baseball) divided ( / )
by innings pitched.
A good ERA is 4.00 and under.

WHIP= ( BB + H) / IP
WHIP is another way to measure the effectiveness of a pitcher. Two pitchers could have identical ERAs but one of those pitchers could have a lower WHIP incating that he is a more effective pitcher. For example, Pitcher A could give up no runs 1 hit and issue 2 walks. His ERa is 0.00 and his WHIP is ( 2BB + 1hit / 6 innings pitched)= .600. Pitcher B also did not give up any runs but allowed 7 hits and issued 3 walks. Pitcher B's ERA is 0.00 but his WHIP is (3 + 7 / 6)=1.66.
A good WHIP is around 1.000, below that is excellant. A poor WHIP is 1.750 or higher.
In our example Pitcher B is allowing nearly 2 runners per inning.Runners on base usually means runs scored

K / BB= Strikeouts / Base on Balls

Opp. BA= Opponent's Batting Average
