Somers-No. Rock is off
-
- March
- 28
Well, some of our resident trash talkers must wait til another day. Somers and North Rockland is canceled for tomorrow
I talked to North Rockland coach Tom Lynch. He said with the rain today (you call it rain — I’m in Glens Falls right now where there’s seven inches of snow on the ground) it seems Somers didn’t want to take a chance its new field would be ruined. I think that’s probably a wise choice. The ground isn’t so hot now anyway; a game would only do damage this early in the year.
Anyway, there’s no makeup date scheduled.
I’m sure no one is more disappointed than the players, who had added a little juice to the season opener the last few days with the friendly banter. The weather always has a way of frustrating teams this time of year, and this is no exception.
I’ll be back in a bit with my random preview on Carmel…

i heard for carmel…leadoff hitter john kiechle has been offered a spot on division 1 towson university…who is part of the colonial division along with teams like virginia commonwealth, george mason, georgia state, univ of delaware, etc. congratulations to him
Does anyone know anything about Arlington or John Jay EF this year? Do they have many returning players? how do they look this season
John Jay East fishkill have the best two hitters in maybe the section in Chochiee and Panik. Unfortunitly that is all they have.
Arlington has three new starting pitchers to replace the three that graduated last year but watch for these new three to be even better. Greg Ackley, Luke Deblasi, and Dylan Britton.
Their lineup will be solidified by leadoff hitter nick camastro, catcher ryan wallner and the power trio of tyler hart, joe gatewood and dylan britton.
watch for them to repeat as league c champs but do a lot better in sectionals.
