ACBL to get new look in 2010
Wednesday, January 27, 2010 |
Significant changes will give the ACBL a new look for the 2010 season. Summer college baseball will be returning to two areas well known for amateur college baseball. The Torrington Titans, sponsored by the Our Baseball Haven group, bring summer ball back to Fuessenich Park in Torrington, CT. Brian Leighton will be the general manager and Greg Hunt assumes the field manager position.
College summer baseball also returns to the Scranton-Wilkes Barre area with the addition of the Lackawanna Lumberjacks. Ron Aniska is the general manager and Chris Pensak will assist him. Mike Petroski has been named field manager. The Staten Island Tide, under the guidance of Tommy Weber as field manager and general manager, will be the third new addition to the ACBL. Kutztown and Peekskill has both been granted a one year leave of absence.
The Long Island Mustangs are now the Long Island Collegians. Butch Caulfield takes over as general manager with Chris Rojas as field manager. The Lumberjacks join the Quakertown Blazers, Lehigh Valley Catz and Jersey Pilots in the Wolff Division. The Collegians, Tide and Titans will compete with the North Jersey Eagles in the Kaiser Division.
The Hampton Division will include the North Fork Osprey, Riverhead Tomcats, Sag Harbor Whalers, Southampton Breakers and Westhampton Aviators.
