Sinclair Head Coach Steve Dintaman on DeWitt

“Brandon played incredible defense for us all year long in centerfield. He made some unbelievable plays, and there are over a dozen players that he robbed of extra-base hits. I’ve never seen a player make plays near and at outfield fence as he made. He’s a difference maker and we’re glad he’s on our team."

“I’m blessed to win this award. I’d like to thank my parents for supporting me, my team for allowing this to happen, and my coaches for developing me to become the player I am today.”
