As we started rolling out the Deep Dives on some of the top hitters in the state leading into the 2021 season we come upon some of the most impressive individual swings during 2020. 

Iowa Western commit Garrett Freeman took home the crown for the farthest ball hit in 2020 by blasting one 404 ft. at the Border Battle in August.
