A competitive baseball athlete from Red Deer has been named the Alberta Sport Development Centre – Central (ASDC-C) Athlete of the Month for November.

Adam Turgeon is a 16-year-old Grade 11 student at St. Joseph’s High School and a current member of the St. Joseph’s Ball Academy.

Turgeon played with the AAA 18U Red Deer Braves baseball team as a 15 year old this past summer and is an Honours student at St. Josephs.

He is a pitcher, third baseman and outfielder and will begin to focus more on his pitching as he hopes to secure a baseball scholarship in the NCAA once he graduates.

Turgeon will try-out for the AAA Braves U18 team again in January 2020.

This past spring, Turgeon attended the RBC Training Ground event in Red Deer.

ASDC – Central officials say those achievements are a testament to his athletic abilities and his future in sport.
