Beloved Hancock Ball Player Dies

One of Hancock’s all-time most beloved ball players has died.

Lifelong resident Gordy Schaaf passed away Sunday evening at U.P. Health System—Portage at the age of 89.

The softball field at the Hancock Driving Park bears his name and a sign was dedicated last summer in his honor.

Gordy said at the time he was amazed to see so many people come out to the ceremony.

A sign for the Bill Givens Memorial Little League Field and Gordy Schaaf Softball Field was unveiled that day.
