He's the elder statesman of the Swift Current Indians, and he's having one of his best seasons ever.

     Local product Conrad Funk isn't about to fade away into the WMBL sunset.

     The League all-star closed off the regular season with a 5-for-5 night at the plate to bring his season batting average to a team-high .397.  The number is also third-highest in the entire WMBL.

     Funk also had an RBI in last night's contest in Weyburn, which concluded his season total at a team leading 36, which is fourth best in the WMBL.

     Funk is originally from Waldeck and has been with the team for 15 seasons.
