Keegan Baxmeyer
The Republic-Times Athlete of the Week is Keegan Baxmeyer, a recent graduate of Freeburg High School who is now playing for the Waterloo Millers baseball team. The son of former Bulldogs and Buds standout John Baxmeyer, Keegan had a monster doubleheader at the plate for the Millers on Sunday. He hit a double with three RBIs in a game one win, then went 4-for-4 with a double, triple and two runs scored in game two. Keegan hit .424 with five home runs and 40 RBIs this spring for Freeburg, including a three-run homer against Waterloo in the sectional title game.
