Walled Lake Northern baseball star Ted Lilley is the SWIPE MASTER GENERAL!!

The Knights speedster broke the school's all-time single-season record for steals on Wednesday in Northern's doubleheader sweep of Waterford Mott, stealing base No.'s 28 and 29, while also going a combined 3-for-5 at the plate with 2 RBI and 2 runs scored. He also got credited with the win from the mound in the second game, pitching brilliant in relief and getting the Corsairs to ground into a double play to end things in the seventh with the game-tying run on deck.

Lilley and the Northern CUTTING CREW are in the midst of a memorable campaign on the diamond, seeing their record balloon to 18-6 following Wednesday's victories in the KLAA twin bill.

This kid doesn't just tear it up on the baseball field either. The past two falls he's been an all-league wide receiver-defensive back on the gridiron for the Knights football team. If that wasn't enough, Lilley is a SUPERSTAR in the classroom, too, getting selected academic all-state in both sports.

Because of Lilley's spectacular play – as well as several other important factors falling into place this spring –, Knights' first-year skipper Kevin La Plante has his club in contention for both league and district titles, with two weeks left in the regular season.

The county's all-time single-season record for steals is 56, set by RH Lutheran Northwest's Mike Lepore in 2004.
