Sweep at Binghamton

Over this past weekend we took the sweep from Binghamton at their place. With the sweep we moved our record to 37-10 and 18-2 in conference to continue adding to the best record in Stony Brook history. This brought our win streak up to 7 games and we have won 18 of our last 19. We came out and played solid baseball for the whole weekend getting big contributions on the mound, in the field and at the plate. Senior SS Chad Marshall had a stellar weekend in which he broke the all time hits record at Stony Brook. Nick Tropeano also earned his 10th win so far this season which ties him for most in a single season with teammate Tyler Johnson who did so last year.

Results:
Friday Game 1 -- Stony Brook 17 - Binghamton 7 (Box Score)
Saturday Game 2 --Stony Brook 4- Binghamton 1 (Box Score)
Saturday Game 3-- Stony Brook 8 - Binghamton 3 (Box Score)

Sunday we had our annual end of the year athletics awards banquet back at school. We had nominees for rookie of the year in Brandon McNitt and Kevin Courtney. Pat Cantwell was awarded the Athletic Directors Award because he embodies all of the characteristics of a leader, and rightfully so. Finally Nick Tropeano won Male Athlete of the Year with his dominance of the year so far. He has thrown great for us all year and will continue to do so for the rest of the season deep into the playoffs. All the honors were well deserved and I would like to congratulate all of my teammates who were honored on the night.
