Regis @ Pittsville
May 3, 2024

I was the plate umpire for the game, and I know I missed some pitches that were pitched on the outside corner. Not one complaint, or face of disappointment on the batters face. We were treated with nothing but respect by the coaches and the players. Pittsville is a class act program. A pleasure doing the game last night.

Wonewoc-Center @ Royall
May 1, 2024

We would like to recognize and congratulate Royall’s Tucker Wildes for his outstanding sportsmanship and leadership displayed during their baseball game against Wonewoc-Center. Throughout the contest Tucker maintained a positive attitude, always encouraging his fellow teammates. Tucker, the starting catcher, on several occasions was observed mentoring the Wonewoc-Center catcher in techniques used as a catcher, i.e., proper positioning for throws to the plate or how to block low pitches to keep them from getting away. It should also be noted that Tucker is the coach for the Royall summer baseball program, teaching and mentoring boys and girls on the fundamentals of baseball, but also how to be good sports.

Manitowoc Lincoln @ Green Bay Southwest
April 14, 2024

We were greeted by the host athletic director, Amy Hogan. We were very impressed with the new baseball field that the Green Bay Southwest had installed. Even more impressive was the service that Ms. Hogan provided to us. We were scheduled for a double-header and she provided us with sandwiches along with choice of chips and candy bar. Also beverages of water or sport drink were provided in between the two games. We would like to personally wish Ms. Hogan the best as she is retiring after this school year. We also would like to thank both teams for displaying good sportsmanship. Again it was a pleasure working for these schools and want to wish them the best of luck for the rest of their seasons.
