Still rackin’ up those numbers.

As we head through the first week of May, former Wolf stars continue to pile up stats in the world of college softball, baseball and track.

A peek in on how the Fab Five are doing (in alphabetic order):

Ben Etzell — A junior at Saint John’s University in Minnesota, he’s the main man in the bullpen for a Johnnies baseball team sitting at 25-11 headed into the playoffs.

He’s 3-1 with five saves, a 2.37 ERA and 28 strikeouts and is holding opposing teams to a .194 batting average.

Currently, he sits #1 on the team in saves and appearances (17) and #2 in ERA and K’s.

For his three-year career, he’s 9-2 with seven saves and 76 strikeouts while pitching in 36 games.

Hailey Hammer — A sophomore at Everett Community College, where she’s hitting .322 in 30 games for a 12-22 softball squad.

She has 28 hits, including a double, triple and three home runs, 20 RBI, 14 runs and 13 base on balls.

That puts her #3 on the team in RBI and hits and #4 in batting average.

Dalton Martin — A freshman at Everett Community College, where he’s throwing the discus.

Saturday, he finished 10th in the event at the Ken Shannon Invitational at the University of Washington’s outdoor track facility.

The meet reunited him with U-Dub freshman Jose Padilla, who won the discus toss.

Padilla, who hails from Chelan, and Martin finished 1st and 2nd at the 1A state track and field meet last spring as high school seniors.

Aaron Trumbull — A freshman at Olympic Community College, where he’s played in 16 games for an 11-23 team.

His claim to fame this season has been his work with the glove, where he’s recorded 42 put-outs and three assists while playing first base.

He’s one of only three Olympic baseball players to boast an error-free 1.000 fielding percentage, but he’s far in front of the other two guys, having played 45 innings to their combined two innings.

Monica Vidoni — A sophomore at Rainy River Community College in Minnesota, where the Voyageurs are 21-15.

She’s played in 29 games for the softball sluggers, collecting 17 hits, including three doubles, on her way to a .340 batting average.

Also has 14 RBI, 11 runs, seven walks and four steals.

CHS grad Monica Vidoni needs a helping hand to get to Florida to play college softball.

Have a buck or two? Help send a former Wolf from snowy Minnesota to sunny Florida.

Monica Vidoni, a 2015 Coupeville High School grad, and her Rainy River Community College softball squad are scheduled to play seven games from Mar. 4-7 in Titusville.

The trip, which opens the season for the Voyageurs, is funded largely by the players ability to raise funds, so Vidoni has set up a GoFundMe to raise her share.

Rainy River currently has only the minimum nine players on its roster, so every player has to step up or the team stays home.

Vidoni has played volleyball, basketball and softball both of her years at RRCC.
