    Congrats to the Conrad Gang

    The article on Greg is awesome. It is great to see a player like Greg - very quiet and respectable, but extremely dedicated - get some much deserved recognition. With Ed and Cindy providing such a great influence, no wonder that he turned out so well! His proven results from his hard work, as well as his good sportsmanship, set a fine example for other athletes to follow. :229031_ha :229031_ha

    His grandfather had a 95 MPH fastball, not Greg.

    Greg is a good pitcher, more of a control guy who can nip the corners all day long with nice movement on all of his pitches.

    Yes, it was grand dad who had the 95er. That was a editing error by our headline writer. I understand how it can happen, scanning back through the story for the best headline. Greg throws in low to mid 80s.
