From growing up at the ballpark to hitting a walk-off homer in the 2016 ISC final, Shane Boland has become a legend in men’s fastpitch. Now 33, the Hill United Chiefs shortstop is more than a standout player—he’s a leader, mentor, and motivator known simply as “Sarge.”

“We all chip in and the team rolls together. No one’s bigger than the game.”

Shane’s 2025 mission is crystal clear: win everything. And with his dedication, grit, and relentless drive, he's ready to lead by example—again.
