Pat Wiese, of Le Moyne College in Syracuse, NY, was the 2014 TD
Ameritrade Fan’s Choice winner. In 2013, Pat was diagnosed with a
form of bone cancer in his leg. After surgery and chemotherapy, he
was unable to reach the field, but he remained a strong part of the
team as its captain. Since then, Pat and his family have
established the Pat Wiese Foundation in hopes of supporting others
fighting the battle against cancer.
In 2013, prior to his illness, Wiese earned all NE-10 Conference
honors and All-Regional honors. That year, he led the team in
hitting, runs, stolen bases and on-base percentage. Wiese was also
involved in Special Olympics, reading at elementary schools near Le
Moyne and was part of the Le Moyne leadership group. He received a
Dean’s Scholarship to attend Le Moyne and was on the Dean’s List
his freshman year.
