Bik Named Top Reliever for PL
<Ruud Bik:player#1806> was a calming influence out of the <Maryland Bridegrooms:team#76> bullpen this season.

His teammates and manager said he had a poised demeanor about him that was typical of someone much older and more experienced. His poise has paid off, as the 23-year-old turned in a sparkling season and has been named the winner of the Patriot League Reliever of the Year for 2054.

The Willemstad, Curaçao native won the award with 39 saves in 60 relief appearances, 85 strikeouts in 65 innings and a record of 4-4 to go with his 1.94 ERA.
