Hiawatha's Corn quickly making his mark

KIRKLAND – One season was all Will Corn needed to carve his name into Hiawatha baseball lore. 

Over time, names can be attached to unique signatures of a baseball park. The Green Monster and Pesky Pole – aptly named after Johnny Pesky – are staples at Fenway Park in Boston. 

After peppering the Hiawatha greenhouse in right center field during his freshman baseball season this past spring, a protective net has been installed to protect the panes of glass from further damage. It’s since picked up a catchy name, too.
