NORMAL, Ill. – Collin Braithwaite's temporary assignment to the Northwoods League's Fon du Lac Dock Spiders was a successful one.
The rising senior backstop for the Illinois State baseball team proved to be a valuable commodity for Fon du Lac in his limited time in the NWL. The native of Queen Creek, Arizona, batted a team-best .364 in his 12 games for Fon du Lac.
Braithwaite finished strong, too, with seven hits over his final three games for the Dock Spiders. In all, Braithwaite posted multi-hit games in exactly half (6-of-12) of his games in the NWL.
