The Bears entered the Southeast Tournament as the top seed, knocking off Wrangell 9-0 in the opening round game behind four shutout innings and a home run from senior Pedro Mojica, to help the Bears advance to the second round.
JDHS was then routed by Sitka 19-9, in six innings, in a game where the Wolves took full advantage of 13 Crimson Bear errors. The Bears state tournament hopes looked bleak as they faced two consecutive must-win games in order to clinch a berth.
The Bears topped Ketchikan 9-4 to stay afloat in the southeast conference and keep their state title hopes alive. JDHS received four strong innings from sophomore Joe Kohan. Nano Jacobsen, Mojica, and Ward each knocked in two runs in the win to force a win and move on, lose and go home matchup with Sitka.
The Bears led 5-1 going into the bottom of the seventh inning, as starter Andrew Hall had limited the Wolves to just one hit. Hall began the seventh by giving up a single and issuing a walk, and his pitch count hovered near 100 pitches, and was relieved by Clae Baker. With runners on first and third, After Baker recorded the first out, a Crimson Bear error on what appeared to be a routine double play ball loaded the bases. Sitka cut the Bears’ lead to 5-3 with a towering two-run double that was then misplayed in the outfield. Wolves shortstop, E.B. Crow then made his mark on the inaugural tournament by sending Baker's offering into the trees in straight-away center field for a three-run walk off home run to complete the Wolves’ five run comeback and give Sitka a 6-5 win, ending the Bears’ season.
The 2006 seniors were Andrew Hall, Clae Baker, Ryan Beason and Nathan Jacobsen.

Team and Individual Statistics
NOTE: Individual batting statistics listed below are based on players with at least 33 at bats (AB)
The 2006 Crimson Bears' Baseball season records are:
Batting Average = H / AB (H=Hits) / (divided by) (AB= At Bats)
TEAM Batting Average = 195 / 582 = .335
Leaders:
Nano Jacobsen .438
Joe Kohan .424
Three other Crimson Bears hit over .300
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 (a runner on 2nd or 3rd) 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 % = 195+89+20 / 582+89+20+13 = .432
Leaders:
Derek Listberger .602
Joe Kohan .588
Nano Jacobsen .563
Andrew Hall .536
Pedro Mojica .533
Two other Crimson Bears had an On Base % over .400
(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 % = 145+78+6+60 / 582 = .497
Leaders:
Derek Listberger .609
Andrew Hall .586
Three other Crimson Bears had slugging percentages in the .500 to .700 range.
(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 = 582 - 102 / 582 = .825

Joe Kohan .985
Pat Kohan .957
Pedro Mojica . 919
(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).

Pitching Statistics: Won-Lost ERA WHIP Ratio K/BB Opp.BA Pitches per Inning
TEAM 17-5 2.41 1.471 1.3 .170 19
Leaders:
Joe Kohan 4-2 2.37 1.059 5 .188 16
Sean Lindsey 3-0 3.40 1.117 1.4 .136 18
Clae Baker 3-2 3.50 1.636 1.4 .235 19
Ryan Beason 2-0 3.89 1.333 2.3 .224 19
Ryan Beason appeared in 9 games as a relief pitcher and pitched
18 innings.
Pedro Mojica Although Pedro pitched 14.6 innings his record was 3-0 with an
ERA of 0.96 and a WHIP of 1.164.
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 leads to runs scored.
