Klick (continusd from page 9) chosen to participate in the all- star tournament prior to the sea- son. The competition is run and overseen by professional baseball scouts. All four qualified for the second round of competition in Danville with a terrific showing in Scranton on June 13th. While the other three players advanced to round three of the tournament in Boyertown, Klick was picked to serve as an alter- nate. An injury to another out- fielder gave him a second chance. The three-sport star from Dallas seized the opportunity and showed just why he’s considered a rising star. A little extra work never hurts either. “I'm always working on my hitting,” said Klick, “always hit- ting and I've been working on some fielding and throwing. I've been trying to make myself faster, run the 60 yard dash and try to cut back on my time.” The hard work as well as the ability to rebound from the situ- ation more than impressed Wolensky, a former Legion coach. The Dallas mentor had witnessed a number of tryouts during his 10 years at the Legion level and is well aware of the extremely com- petitive situation each player is faced with, not to mention the pressure of performing in front of professional scouts. “I was i for him because t “If you ask anybody in the league, they'll tell you that Rich is right up there with the top four or five players..” Jack Wolensky Dallas baseball coach he got another chance,” Wolensky said. “It's very difficult, once you're eliminated to come back like that and make those next two cuts. For him to be eliminated, come back and end up with the best players in the state of Pennsylva- nia - that's a testament to how hard he fought back. That makes it even more enjoyable.” For Klick the joy came after last week's final workout in Philadel- phia. Ofthe 56 players assembled in the meeting room, he was one of the few invited to play in Harris- burg. The decision to compete as an outfielder also paid dividends. “We felt that would have been my best choice,” said Klick who also sees a lot of action at short- stop and pitcher. “I'm better suited to the outfield as opposed to the competition.” Klick has also lettered in foot- ball and basketball at Dallas. On the hardwood he's a small for- ward for coach Paul Brown, but he excels at a number of posi- tions, both offensively and defen- sively, for Ted Jackson's football team. His favorite sport, however, is baseball. “Baseball is my first choice,” said Klick. “The other sports help keep me in shape. Football condi- tioning really helps.” Klick also swings the bat when- ever he has an opportunity dur- ing the autumn and winter. When not playing one of the big three, Klick can be found in the weight roomor perhaps on the golf course. That was the case this past Satur- day when he and his dad teamed up with Bob Lorah Sr. and Bob Lorah Jr. as a foursome at the Dallas Gridiron Club Golf Tour- nament, held at the Four Seasons Golf Course in Exeter. “We finished in last place,” laughed Klick. “I'm not a very serious golfer and that (event) was to just go have fun.” Klick and Kunkle will repre- sent the Mountaineer baseball team at the Keystone State games in August, but the business at hand is to catch the glimpse of some major league baseball scouts this weekend. “I'm looking forward to the game,” said Klick. “I just hope to do well and catch the attention of the scouts.” A good performance would also set the stage for next spring's high school season. College coaches also figure to closely analyze his every at bat, throw, play and pitch next year. “If you ask anybody in the league, they'll tell you that Rich is right up there with the top four or five players in the league the last couple of years,” said Wolensky. “I think he has the potential to be as good as anybody in college if he keeps developing the way he is.” After Sunday, Klick can also say he’s played baseball in a minor league facility. Riverside Stadium is home to the Harrisburg Sena- tors, the Montreal Expos class AA affiliate. The stadium actually sits on a large island in the Susquehanna River outside of Harrisburg.
