Umb takes game 1 of the DH against Franklin and Marshall 9-5!  McCormack was 3-3 with a HR and 3 runs scored while consiglio was 2-3 with 4rbis and a 2b!  Lynch and Mattei had 2 rbis each!  Beacons are back in action this afternoon with Tom cole on the mound looking to improve to 3-0 on the young season!

Umass Boston boys win 9-7 in the season opener!!! Made 5 errors and struggled with the young bullpen.  However, a win is a win!!! Heefner looked solid on the mound giving up 0 er in 7 innings of work!  The boys are back in action tomorrow in a dbl header against Franklin & marshall @ 1:30!

Umb up 6-0 in the sixth behind heefner! 

Umass Boston's education is wicked GOOD where did they rank?!?!

Walsh Walsh Walsh and prolly Walsh....
Why do we constantly talk about how good Keene was in 04 and how hot umb got in 2010!  All that matters is what happens this year!  The season is about to start and then we can discuss how this years teams are doing!

I bet cole and heefner hold Keene state to 6 runs or less in the dbl header!

Good to have you back bobby!!! Any predictions for player of the year? I vote for mark McCormack.  It looks like the kid has put on ten pounds of muscle and hasn't lost a step on his 60!
Should be one of the most well rounded beacon teams in recent years!  Should be pretty legit in every phase!  Enough of this talk it is now time to walk the walk!  My boys leave for Florida tomorrow morning eager to take on some fresh meat!!!

Gonna be some surprises this year!

Dalton recently had a son named hank and landed a very good full time job so he will not be playing for umb this year.  However junior Tom cole is hitting 90mph on the radar gun and he should be the number 1 flamethrower for umass.  Umb has about 23 new recruits to mix in with the core returners in McCormick, Mattei, lynch, cole, heefner, and Fontaine(back from injury to  be the backbone of the team and help develop confidence in some of the new young arms).

Players not returning: santos, Walsh, Noonan,Reinfurt and dalton.

Gonna be a lot of new faces this year, but some good "unproven" talent that coach E will have to develop in order to make a run at it this season!

Season will be here before we know it!

Congrats to coach Eygabroat of the umass beacons just had a healthy baby girl!!!!
Gonna be a fun year in the LEC!!! UMB bringing in their recruiting class from the world series run
Saw some of there fall ball practices got some new flame throwers and a couple big bats!!!
It was a laser show in BP!  Gonna be a tough team this year!  Wish the best of luck to all the
LEC teams this year! I hope one of us represents in the WS this year!
