With the high school baseball season in the books, we took a look at the players who had the greatest impact on their teams. Here is the Times-Mail all-area team for players from Bedford North Lawrence, Orleans and Mitchell. The list is in alphabetical order:

Kaedyn Bennett, Bedford North Lawrence 

Bennett, a junior first baseman/third baseman, batted .321 with 11 RBIs, 11 runs and drew 12 walks while being hit by pitch eight times to post a team-leading .459 on-base percentage.

Grant Dalton, Bedford North Lawrence

BNL senior Grant Dalton (14) taps helmets with Walker Ward (23) to celebrate Dalton's home run on Senior Day.

The senior center fielder bounced back from a slow start, induced by a preseason hand injury, to hit .309 with five doubles, a team-best three triples, a home run and 12 RBIs. Dalton also produced 17 runs and drew 15 walks out of the leadoff spot, while committing a mere one error in the outfield.



Dalton was at his best when it mattered most as he went 4 for 7 in two sectional games. He nailed a runner at third in the Stars' 5-2 semifinal win over Seymour, and was 3 for 3 against New Albany ace Tucker Biven, including a roped double, in a 4-0 setback in the title tilt. Dalton will next play at Southeastern Illinois College.
