Every time I go to the field to check something or do a lesson with a youth player, our guys are out there hitting and throwing and bonding. So thankful to have passionate, dedicated kids in our program year after year. I wish opening day was tomorrow—can’t wait for this season!

Our third senior to commit this off season. Congrats, Nico!! One of our hardest workers, best teammates, and a great representative of our program. So happy for you! Nico Ruoti

Great effort today against one of the best teams in the state. Took a lead into the 7th and fell a little short. Nico Ruoti had a day with a go-ahead home run and a go-ahead double. CJ Desmond was excellent on the mound again.

Hilltoppers rally late and walk it off vs Marmion today, 8-7! Brandon Nunez with 2 hits and 3 RBI off the bench, including the game winner. Eric Lowrie and Nico Ruoti also each with 2 doubles and 2 RBI. CJ Desmond with another quality start: 5 IP, 6 K, 0 BB, 2 ER.

What do Christopher Morel and Nico Ruoti have in common? They both came up clutch with walk off hits today! Ruoti scores 2 on a double to right center as the Hilltoppers win 10-9 vs Willowbrook. Playoffs Monday at home at 4:30! See you there!!!

Great Saturday!
