Pre-Season Preview: Stoney Creek HS

By Mike Penn
Michigan Director of Scouting

Stoney Creek High School, coached by Clint Rodger, had a good year in 2012.  They finished their campaign 22-14 overall and 10-5 in a tough Oakland Activities Association (OAA) Red conference.  Lake Orion eventually won the OAA-Red title.

 They will have six returning players, all of which will log innings on the mound.  They are led by Kyle Schweiger, a Grand Rapids Community College commit, who hit .414 in 2012. 

They also return sophomore RHP/IF/OF Eric Gilgenbach. Gilgenbach started every game as a freshman in 2012 and hit .419 with five home runs.  

Other top returners include Justin Allor (2014) and Joe Cox (2014).  Allor, a 6-foot-1, 185-pound infielder has already received interest from several Division I schools.  Cox (pictured above) is also an infielder in the Class of 2014, and he has tremendous offensive capabilities. 

Other Players to Watch

+ OF Jake Kruk- Kruk is a 6-foot, 160-pound senior captain for Stoney Creek who will hit in the lead off spot.
+ SS/RHP Noah Beck- Beck is a 5-foot-10, 145-pound junior who started at short in 2012.
