I notice on the ECSU roster there is a man named Jeremiah Dunnack, it says he graduated hs in 94' is that a typo or is he really about 34 yrs old? can anyone confirm this?

EasternFan,

Interesting!!!!!

Bio says he was born June 4 1976 and graduated from Windham High in 1994!!!  So would have to be two typos to be wrong!!  Maybe spent time in the service and then came back to school???

No typos, he's that old.  Not sure what the deal was or is but he is a Willimantic kid or I guess I should say man. He tried out in the fall at the catcher position but was cut.  They must have had some changes this winter/spring.  I would guess he is going to be on the JV squad at 34?

Welcome to the boards bobby and I agree with everything that you said about this squad this year. A pretty experinced staff mixed in with some young guys. Good offense will be there to back them up BIG TIME if the pitching does struggle. But if this pitching staff comes together and pitches well with Lebrun, Andriano leading the way.......... Mite be taking a trip to Wilmantic coming regional time.

We all like to dream big. The only reason UMB will be at the regionals will be to get beat (again) by Keene State who will be passing through Willimantic on their way to Appleton.

Kscer hate to break the news to you big guy but in my mind KSC has the same kind of team as UMB.... They are both going to hit the ball all over the field. But pitching remains the question for both. So for you to sit there and say KSC is going to the world series is dumb.

jconn, what do you know? Keene's pitching will be much improved over last year. My only lingering doubts are whether they will have a lead-off hitter that can provide the spark, and a middle infield that can turn a DP.

Oh this is fun... First week of the season KSC vs UMB getting into to it. LEC baseball - it's the best... and now we have a new "Beacon" on board. Welcome aboard BobbyBeacon. Just one word of advice... don't get caught in the crossfire with Jcon and the rest of the LEC posters.

Interesting score yesterday.... down in NY ... Old Wetbury beating Cortland St.  It will be interesting to see how USM and Eastern fair against them in the early going today and tomorrow, respectively..

Word from Baseball Heaven Eastern pounding on Albertus Magnus with Schult and Wojick pitiching well through six.

Way too early to get excited about scores of games in March but at least global warming has helped out this first weekend in March to bet a bunch of games in with 50 degree weather.

Hobbesy.... nice job on your site.

Fellas so excited about the fact that we have baseball going on.  USM and Eastern getting games in already is huge, nice to see how the team's might shake out before going south to the warmth.  Its always funny how it seems you go into the season with one lineup in mind and then when you get back from down south you have a line up thats tweaked here or there based on someone surprising you and someone not playing up to snuff.    I have always found tha tthe coaches dont really settle into thier true sat line up until about 10-12 games into the season. 

Jcon get your heads out of the clouds man.  Keene better offense, Keene MUCH better pitching.  Adraino CAN NOT WIN BIG GAMES!!!  Im sorry he cant, i dont the know the kid might be a nice kid, but he cant beat Eastern, he cant beat USM, and he cant beat KEENE.  Raymond who is a true LEC sat starter is 10 times the pitcher that the Beacons have on their roster.  You will not see UMB in the regionals and you will see them finish in the middle of the pack like they do evey year in the LEC, just like the last 5 years.  When they had Conway who was a stud and a great pitcher they couldnt even beat the big three, and Lebrun or whatever his name is, and or adriano dont even come close to the pitcher he was.  Well about thier offense you say, the Beacons are a much better offense of team now then they where then!  Well Keene is 5 times the offense team now it was before which means they will tatoo UMB terrible starters all over the park.  UMB will finish 5th this year behind RIC and until UMB finishes in the top three or wins more than 2 games in the LEC tournament dont try convincing people otherwise.

Enough of my rant, Hobbesy good stuff on the blog and posts, spring trips around the corner cant wait.
