McFarland: Beaning hasn’t slowed down NAIA All-American and Dawgs slugger Crowell
“Nash Crowell may have had the craziest week any college baseball player could ever imagine.
The Reinhardt University slugger found himself in the unpredictable position of going viral after getting hit in the face by a 100 mile-per-hour fastball in a March 30th game.
Just one hospital visit and six days later, he was back on the field hitting a walk-off grand slam with his parents in the stands.
It was a whirlwind filled with a wide range of emotions, and while the scars are gone, the memories are still very vivid in Crowell’s mind.”

Helen is the epitome of opening a home for HarbourCats baseball players, providing a host stay for a combined 14 players since the end of the pandemic. And each one of them has fallen in love with her baking -- chocolate chip or oatmeal raisin, the cookie jar may just be the busiest place in her Fairfield character home.”
