Blizzard Foundation Spotlight Player

Do you know a baseball player who deserves to be recognized for achievements off the field? If so, send in a nomination to have that player honored as the Blizzard Foundation's Spotlight of the Month. The Blizzard Foundation is dedicated to encouraging baseball players who contribute positively to their community and others around them.

December's spotlight player was Dylan Dresel of Mankato State University. Dylan continues to impact people around him on and off the field.  As a business management major, Dresel has to be on top of his game managing his time wisely; juggling group projects, homework, studying, and internships are especially challenging for collegiate athletes.
