♦ Celebrating East Meadow's Sean Hogan - East Coast Conference Baseball Player of the Year
Congratulations Sean, East Meadow is super proud of you!!
Hogan, Mack, and Giblin Claim ECC Baseball All-Conference Top HonorsPosted: May 13, 2021West Babylon, N.Y. – The East Coast Conference announced its Baseball All-Conference awards on Thursday morning. Molloy's Sean Hogan (East Meadow, N.Y.) was named the league's Player of the Year, while Alex Mack (Cornwall, N.Y.) of St. Thomas Aquinas took home Pitcher of the Year accolades. The top honors are rounded out with Mercy's Nolan Giblin (Syracuse, N.Y.) earning the Rookie of the Year honor and Molloy head coach Joe Fucarino being selected by his peers as the conference's Coach of the Year.Hogan followed through on his selection as the ECC Preseason Player of the Year by claiming the postseason award, as well. The graduate student was the top hitter in the ECC during the regular season, leading the league with a .402 batting average. Hogan also topped the ECC with 41 hits and ranked among the top-10 in the loop with eight doubles, three triples, 30 runs batted in, 55 total bases, a .480 on-base percentage, and a .539 slugging percentage. In addition, Hogan constantly puts pressure on opposing defenses by ranking as the toughest player to strike out in all of Division II. He's gone down on strikes just three times in 102 at-bats, good for a ratio of one every 34 at-bats.Joining Hogan and Mack as All-Conference First Team selections are Thomas Brady (C, Molloy), Anthony Murphy (1B, Mercy), Andrew Jemison (3B, St. Thomas Aquinas), Miguel Ortiz-Sanchez (SS, Mercy), Elias Beltre (OF, Lincoln), Matt Overton (OF, Molloy), James Versage (OF, St. Thomas Aquinas), Thomas Martens (DH, Staten Island), Reed Hoskins (UTL, Queens), Charlie Cucchiara (SP, Molloy), Justin Nyarady (SP, Bridgeport), Timothy Panetta (SP, Molloy), and James Reilly (RP, St. Thomas Aquinas)2021 ECC Baseball All-Conference

♦East Meadow Softball hosted a free clinic for the players in our Ponytail Division. We had great weather and an even better turnout with over 40 girls participating. Ponytail players received instruction from players on our 10U and 12U travel teams. A great time was had by all. Thanks to all of the coaches who volunteered to help. We look forward to a great Ponytail season. Go Fillies!!!!
