nice seeing ESPN giving alittle D3 love but seriously 57-1 wow How can you do that to a team I think they need to bring in a mercy rule or do something to Bridgewater for doing that to Newbury

Melvin makes a ton of errors but man that kid is a stud...Eastern is lucky to have him playing there people have to watch this kid play

just a question/thought The GNAC conf has been done for over a week maybe longer while other D3 schools are still playing. Why doesnt the GNAC make its tourny the same as the LEC It seems as if we put our champs in a bad spot rolling into the tourny by having them sit for a week.

Mike Damiani First team Albertus Magnus
Jeff King Second Team Albertus Magnus
JR Bagley Second Team Albertus Magnus
Ward from Norwich made First Team as a Catcher

Ok here we go again. Take the time and read my posts. Smolin SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE PITCHER OF THE YEAR ive been saying it all year. I was shocked when he wasnt as most people who have seen the kid throw. However I dont think he hits 92 there is no way he gained 10 mph since the begining of the year just no way. We have a radar gun that charts our pitchers as most ppl do. And i did go 0-3 against him. I also hit 367 if you want to go to my schools website or the GNAC website and see my name on some leaderboards. I dont like it when Newenglandboy comes to the aid of WNEC like they need help. Maybe they did get big leagued but 5 kids on the 1st and 2nd teams arent bad. You dont play the game on paper you play the game on the field. We beat Suffolk this year when there number 1 seed was on the line. So thats where i take offense to the terrible teams. When your on a team trying to win games the last thing you want to hear is some guy behind a computer and fake name talking crap about your school and a coaching staff that works hard to better the team is out of line. So hopefully that ends that.

What facts did you step into a batters box this year I was in the box against the all of WNEC's guns and the rest of the GNAC were you A kid doesnt go from 82 on our gun to another 10mph if he did then everyone should transfer to WNEC because they are doing some mind blowing things over there. How many people should WNEC have had ? All 9 ? And StraightGas which you only call yourself that because you most likely have never have thrown gas who do you play for you sound like a WNEC fan and if you read my other posts you would see that I dont doubt they were the best team and Matt is a very good coach. Dont bash other coaching staffs,players, and cry because everyone didnt get on the first team. I know alot of players that should have been on that did not get voted on the team

Smolin throws nothing close to 93 unless the person with the gun had alittle too much to drink that day. He was the best pitcher in the league by far so I dont want anyone to get that confused, however he did not come close to sniffing upper 80's. Does Joe Torre win coach of the year every year how about Geno for Uconn women hoops What does LaBranche teach Golf ? Come on now.  Hollowatty does the same stuff at Eastern. Dont bash other coaching staffs around the league is my point. They had 5 players on both teams. All the teams vote on the awards and it goes by in conf stats as well. WNEC is trying to be the new eastern, well thats not going to happen. And if anyone read my previous posts they would see that I didnt bash WNEC. Dont bash other schools INCLUDING ALBERTUS if you want a hint there it is. Dont bash other coaches and the work they put into it. Very easy to sit in your dirty underwear and read stats from college kids because you were the last one picked at reccess.

Ok Newenglandman have you ever played the game before Do you know how they pick the first and second teams. You sound like a bitter WNEC fan who wants the whole team placed on the first team. There is no question that Hurley should have been POY the kid is nasty. Ill give you Burkett didnt deserve Pitcher of the Year because he wasnt.  Smolin was. The kid was unreal didnt have the arm of Burkett but he did have better command of all his pitches. Burkett was the best thrower but Smolin best pitcher and the one pitcher that nobody in the league wanted to face. Now let me get into why your a tool. WNEC lost an All American. THATS IT they brought everyone else back. Anderson and Pizzo along with all of there hitting. How can you say that the bottom teams are awful with bad coaches ? When your making your case for Smolin you say he beats Albertus. And by the way Albertus won the GNAC about 3 years ago so know what your talking about. They also beat Suffolk this year with all of Suffolks guns in and played ESCU to 5-1 in 9 innings which is 9th in the country. Have you ever played the game ? Is everything about awards. There are alot of deserving kids that get left off of the all-star teams or all conf teams. whatever its not that big of a deal. Why dont you look at why WNEC always wins rather then just looking at these other teams cant win. WNEC has full time staff so they can recruit all day and be in the office. There only jobs are to be on campus doing baseball activities. They dont work 9-5 jobs then have to come recruit have practices then go on the road. WNEC has state of the art facilities. So instead of getting on your laptop and saying these coaches are awful why dont you do a sit up try and do what these coaches do for about 3,000 dollars a season. Its not an easy thing. Stats are nice but how about thinking what did this kid do in a big spot ? Did he strike out with the bases loaded ? Or did his hits come when the game was a blow out or with nobody on. Its easy to get on a kid when you just look at stats. Plenty of people were left off the GNAC teams that should have made it. Dont go crying for a WNEC team that gets all of the calls and all of the awards anyways. The overal goal of a team to do is to win the league and go to regionals.  So WNEC is doing that good for them but dont call other teams coaches bad when you cant even coach a girls tee ball team. So hide behind your computer you punk. While you cry for all of the WNEC kids because they didnt get awards they didnt deserve.

This is all first hand knowledge about WNEC. I play in the GNAC and went to a couple of conference meetings and this is what we were told. Im sure there are always stories behind stories why they are leaving but this is why I was told they were leaving.

How good is my boy Mel Castilo at ECSU I play summer ball with him..if you havent seen this kid play you need to

WNEC is leaving because they want to get into a conf. that has football no GNAC school has a football team. The GNAC is picking up 3 teams to negate the departure of WNEC. St Joes of Maine Mt Ida and LaSalle are coming into the league. There are also more then 8 schools but the other ones are all girl schools. So we lose WNEC but bring in a very good St Joe team

ECSU is by far the nicest D3 field ive played on/seen. Ive heard Wesleyan had a great feel to it beacuse of everyone that comes out when you play there.  WestConn is a waste because it has one of the worst of outfields in the history of baseball its on a huge slope. WNEC isnt that bad as far as D3 fields go but nothing beats Eastern

WNEC was easily the most balanced team in the league by far. They had the best pitcher in the league Smolin while Riv had the best thrower in Burkett. Riv would be nothing without that kid. The only way they beat any teams were when he pitched. Their hitting was terrible. The league will be wide open next year when WNEC leaves but it will still be a quality up and coming league. Suffolk was good this year but their pitching depth wasnt there but they could swing the bats with anyone. JWU was a scrappy team but i would like to see how they handle losing Hurley who was nasty his whole carrer at JWU. AMC is bringing a good team back with only losing 4 seniors and Emmerson did a nice job first year coming back from being a club team.
