The senior infielder has been a key member of the back-to-back Class 1A West Region champions.
Stickle provided three hits and drove in four runs in the decisive Game 3 of the Class 1A West Region finals Saturday night at Mount Airy.
That result sent the Eagles back to the state finals, where they’ll try to repeat as state champions this week in the best-of-3 finals against Northside-Pinetown at Holly Springs.
Stickle was solid throughout the regional. He scored the first run when UCA won in the series opener. He had one of the team’s two hits in the Game 2 loss.
