BADGERS MOURN LOSS - REST IN PEACE TREVOR

It is with great sadness that I have to announce the loss of one of our Badger family members, Trevor Barton.

Trevor lost his life early Saturday morning when he was struck by a train passing through the downtown London area. Our condolences go out to his family and to all that he has shared his life with.

In his short baseball career Trevor was the 2004 Baseball Ontario Junior Player of the Year, has won the National Championships with the London Badgers in 2009, the Elimination Championships in 2009 and 2011, the OBA championship in 2009 and also attended St. Clair Community College on a baseball scholarship.

He was a huge asset and ambassador to the Badger program and truly epitomized what a Badger is... A fierce competitor who backed down from no one! I would ask our Badger Community to keep Trevor's family in your thoughts and prayers.

-Mike Lumley
