USSSA Crittenden County Rockets

Dear USSSA Family:

It is with great sadness that KY USSSA Baseball passes along this news.
Jake Hodge, a wonderful young man on the 12u Crittenden County Rockets baseball team, died Saturday, June 21 in his sleep. Jake played shortstop and was a very talented young man in many ways. His father is also a coach for the team and longtime baseball man in Crittenden County. The team, and all who know Jake and the family, are deeply saddened and heartbroken. They are trying to make sense of it, but are finding it very hard. A trust fund has been set up at Fifth Third Bank for a memorial scholarship. Any donations may be sent to Coach Brad Gilbert c/o Gilbert Funeral Home 117 west Bellville Street Marion, KY 42064. This is also extremely difficult time for Brad because he works for the Funeral home. Please keep all concerned in your thoughts and prayers. God is good and He will provide the strength they all need we will all do our best to help along the way. Thank you for your prayers.
