Coaches Corner #6 Well it’s late February and the start of the 2008 season is right around the corner. The team is in great anticipation for the new year and they are working hard in practice to prepare for the season. As a coaching staff, it’s been an interesting and unique challenge to prepare a young team for the upcoming season. A lot of stuff has been thrown at the kids but they are taking it in stride and translating it onto the playing field. It is a challenge that the coaching staff does not shy away from. We are excited for March 14th and the opening game at Lynchburg. The pitchers are well into their pre-season throwing program and you can see a definite growth in the younger pitchers. We will be relying on them to solidify our staff this year with seniors Jason Protano and Adam Telian leading the way. The lineup looks to be led by junior Kevin Casey, Eric Catalanotti and senior Steve Ragonese. We also return a number of sophomores with playing experience who will look to contribute. From a coaching standpoint, one of the great things to see is that we have some competitive kids who are pushing each other at every position. It makes our decision making hard but that’s a good problem to have. I want to take the opportunity to remind everyone about the Golf Tournament. The registration form is posted on the alumni website. It’s a great chance to come back and see old teammates and meet the new alumni. Also, the Diamond Club is a great opportunity and I want to thank the alumni for their efforts. It is another aspect of Tufts Baseball that proves it’s a great tradition to be a part of. Lastly, please check out the senior resumes. Any help you can give these great kids is a tremendous help. We wish you the best and hope to see you at a game this spring. Go Jumbos.
