ETHAN GREATHOUSE

This week, the Wetzel Chronicle will shine its Sports Spotlight on Valley Lumberjack seniors Ethan Greathouse and Caden Palmer, a pair of outstanding senior baseball players.

This looks to be Greathouse’s year to shine. He has been a focal point as a pitcher and shortstop the last several seasons and is ready to come-to-the-top this season in baseball. He wasn’t bad at the plate either, hitting for .300 on the season.

He was asked to give a quote and he said, “It’s not how big you are, it’s how big you play.”

Palmer has been a pleasant surprise to start the season for the Valley, and will be counted to supply the bulk of the Lumberjacks’ power at the plate.

We asked Ethan and Caden a few questions about themselves so others can identify them on the field, as well as off: here are the questions and answers, respectively:
