Thursday, September 23rd, 2117
At the age of 22, Piara Mahabala says he still has a lot to learn about life in IBL Rookie League.

But he certainly seems to be a quick study, as the Naples Naturals reliever was better than all others this year and has captured the 2117 IBL Rookie League Reliever of the Year Award.

"I hope to win this a few more times before all is said and done in my career," the Sangli-Miraj, India native said.

For the season, Mahabala had 37 saves in 56 relief appearances, which totaled 59. He fanned 70 betters, while walking 34 and put up a record of 4-4 to go with his 1.53 ERA.

He received 4 first place votes out of a possible 10. Shafi Khaskheli of the Bonn Foxes finished second in voting with 4 first place votes, while Baldassare Larini of the Quezon City Ood finished third with 2 first place votes.
