BY SHAWN LOUGHLIN

Ty Sebastian of Brussels is one of three finalists for the International Softball Congress Canada East 2022 Player of the Year Award.

Sebastian is up against Quinten Bruce of the Bear Creek Express, who is also one of Sebastian’s fellow members of the Canadian national team, as well as Tom Berube of the Toronto Dieppe and Ridge Legends teams.

Sebastian is being recognized not just for his play with the Huron County Fastball League’s Brussels Tigers, leading them to a fifth straight title, but with the Toronto Batmen as well, who finished third in the Canada East Qualifier. Sebastian was also named the Playoff Round Most Valuable Player at the national championship tournament, earning his team a silver medal.
As a member of team Canada, he hit a home run and had three RBIs in Canada’s 9-2 win over Japan, while also pitching in two games, earning a win and striking out 14 with an earned run average of 2.86. 

The winner will be announced in early January.
