QUEENSCLIFF gun Lochie Philp has taken out the BPCA1 Champion Player award for the home and away season after an impressive individual campaign.<\/p>\n
Calculated by general statistics such as runs and wickets, the Champion Player award is given to the player with the most points across the season.<\/p>\n
In a tight top five, Philp edged out Drysdale’s Blake Dobbin to sit atop the leaderboard with 682 points.<\/p>\n
Philp opened the batting all season for the Coutas and was often a catalyst in run chases that saw his side finish second on the ladder.<\/p>\n
His top score came against Armstrong Creek, when he made a whopping 160 in a knock including\u00a021 fours.<\/p>\n
Dobbin finished second on 685 points, largely thanks to his 27 wickets \u2013 the equal second-most in the league.<\/p>\n
However, he also had multiple batting cameos through the middle order, with his top score of 69 coming against Inverleigh.<\/p>\n
Barwon Heads’ Daniel Donaldson finished third on 623 points, thanks to 22 wickets across the season.<\/p>\n
Despite finishing on the bottom of the ladder, Inverleigh’s Lachlan Platt was a shining light in a disappointing season and finished in fourth with\u00a0603 points.<\/p>\n
Platt made 403 runs, the fourth-most in the league, and added 17 catches as he took the gloves as a wicketkeeper.<\/p>\n
