Athletic Trainer of the Year, and now the Wizards grounds crew has been awarded the Field of the
Year for the Wizards home field, Community America Ballpark.

The Wizards have handed out their year end awards, and it's now time for me to hand out my end of

Wolff won both the MVP award and the Golden Boot.
