I agree that he is the fastest kid on the field.  He can hit too.  That team will compete next season, without a doubt.
Watch out for the Brewers!!

I'm waiting for the year that everyone in the LL goes 12-12 and Karl Steffen makes the first tiebreaker "Team that has a coach named Smoke and/or a team that has Polytechnic in its official title."

Hey, good news for RPI: For the first time in a long time, you won't lose a LL Tournament Game!

Smoke on that!

I'm sure they will blame the umpires on not making the tournament.  That seems to be the trend.

All-conference team is out.

Rochester is the big winner with 11 players selected.

Only thing that stands out to me is Mike Cieszko not getting first or second team all-league. He definitely deserved better than honorable mention.

I'd also challenge the fact that only one skidmore starting pitcher was an all conference.  Their whole pitching staff has very similar numbers and all deserved it.  Marcus had the advantage of always going against a 3.  Stork, Brucato (who threw a no hitter), and Laracuente (1 hitter against the mighty Rochester) deserved it just as much as Marcus, who was first team. He just had more W's, but with much better run support.

Who would you have Ciesko replace?  He should have been a starter from day one this year. That may have made a difference in the Red Hawks season.

Also disagree with the Skidmore staff getting the nod.  Shouldn't the team with the best record, most players on the all league teams, and home field advantage in the tournament get best coaching staff, not matter what? (Yes, I am supporting Rochester here. It scares me too...)

Looking forward to all the action this weekend to get the Regional set.  I am looking at LL tourney and the matchups look pretty good.  Hope the weather holds in Rochester! 
Ron Ron...good point about coaching staff.  Guy at Skidmore deserves a look but looking at What Rochester lost off last years team and where they finshed... hard to not say Coach Reina didn't deserve it! Skidmore does have one of the best staffs in the country!!

Anyone one know if they have live stats or anything at the Tourney??.. Keep us posted!

Yes, there will be Live Stats for the tournament.  I just spoke to the SID.  He said the link is on the Rochester Baseball site under "key links."  It is not running at this time, since they haven't loaded the software yet.  It will be ready for the first game today.

Good luck to the Rochester Yellowjackets!!  GO JACKETS!!!!!!!!!

Is that the same Matt Kelley on the Skidmore bench that played at PLattsburgh?

Ron Ron

Hot Rod Runnin - Yes, they are 1 in the same

Skidmore defeats Clarkson 7-6 scoring 2 in the 8th and 1 in the 9th.  Rochester/St. Law to start soon.  Live stats on the Rochester site.

DefenseWins

In the clarkson skidmore game, skidmore ties it up in the 7th with a solo shot and an SB followwed by a single off of georold who was around the 130 pitch mark on 3 days rest!!!!!!!

Bad coaching move? Lack of confidence in bullpen? Or just leaving it up to his best arm to get it done?

Personnally i dont know how as a coach you can let a player run his pitch count up that high on 3 days rest and expect him to be himself on that mound.
Rochester handles ST Lawerence easily in opening round game. St Lawerence makes 4 errors. Storm with a hr.

Personally I don't know how St. Lawrence doesn't come out with Cook who is their number one.  Or maybe each coach just knows what is best for their clubs.  I wouldn't get into what each team does in terms of leadership.  I think all of these guys have pretty good track records, especially Clarkson's coach.  Some kids do want the ball, I am sure Goerold is one of them.
