2012 SEASON PREVIEW

The success of last season did nothing to temper the expectations of the Seton Hall University baseball team. If anything it made the team hungrier and eager to build on the foundation set a year ago. The Pirates won nine of their last 11 games, sweeping through the BIG EAST Tournament to capture the third confer-ence title in school history, and winning their first game at the NCAA Regional in College Station, Texas. While several key members of that team graduated last spring, Seton Hall is flush with returning talent for 2012. Win-ning the BIG EAST title last season and advancing to the NCAA Tournament only made this year’s team yearn to accom-plish even more. “We have high expectations, we always do, but this year the guys really under-stand what it takes to have a successful season,” said head coach Rob Shep-pard, who is entering his ninth season as the Pirates’ skipper. “Having a num-ber of guys that return makes it a little easier in that regard because they have a taste. We don’t have to talk about it because they’ve been there. It makes it a lot easier to bring the younger guys along because you have the older guys to kind of share their experience.” With seasoned upperclassmen that have playoff experience and a solid base of young talented players thanks to an-other strong recruiting class, Sheppard sees the team taking on the mentality of a perennial contender. “I think the identity that they want to have and the identity that we’re trying to establish is that we’re there to compete for a championship every year,” Shep-pard said. “I can’t say enough about the senior and junior class, of how hard they’ve continued to work and really raise the bar, not only for the team but for themselves as well.”

INFIELD Seton Hall’s infield should feature a mix of established veterans and newcom-ers vying for playing time. Senior Michael Betz will start at first base after seeing action in 32 games and making 22 starts

a year ago. Freshman Sal Annunziata is also expected to see time at first. “Michael did a really nice job for us in the postseason last year with a high on-base percentage; his ability to extend in-nings was tremendous,” Sheppard said. “He is always finding a way to get on base and has a lot of quality at-bats.” Junior Mike Genovese returns to sec-ond base after starting 51 games in 2011. He ranked third on the team with a .279 average and was second with 31 RBIs. Junior Chase Gray should provide depth at second base and middle infield, appearing in 26 games with 13 starts last season. Junior Giuseppe Papaccio primarily played third base last year, but will transi-tion to the role of full-time shortstop for 2012. Papaccio demonstrated speed and power at the plate, churning out 10 extra-base hits, including a pair or home runs in addition to converting on 11-of-12 stolen base attempts. “Giuseppe was a natural shortstop in high school and played some short over the summer and had a really good fall,” Sheppard said. “So we are looking for-ward to seeing him move over to the shortstop position.” With Papaccio’s move over to short-stop, Sheppard believes a number of

players will be competing for time at third base and in the infield, including sopho-more Chris Selden, Junior Connor Del-epine, freshman Kyle Grimm and fresh-man D.J. Ruhlman. “As far as the infield is concerned, we are solidified at some sports but there are others that we are waiting to see who steps up and gets the job done.”

CATCHER After seeing some time behind the plate as a freshman, sophomore Dillon Hamlin is expected to step in as the Pi-rates’ primary catcher. Hamlin hit .237 in 15 appearances last year and started all three games in a crucial series with St. John’s in addition to seeing playing time against Arizona in the NCAA Regional. “Dillon stepped in for our series against St. John’s and did a very nice job as a freshman behind the plate,” Sheppard said. “He caught a little bit at the region-al last year, so he’s got some experience that I think will help us.” Freshmen Alex Falconi and Tyler Boyd should also get some opportunities for playing time at catcher.

2012 SEASON PREVIEWboasts the most depth in the outfield. The Hall returns all three starting outfield-ers in senior left fielder Dale Anderson, sophomore center fielder Zach Granite and senior right fielder Will Walsh. Granite was the only Pirate to start all 59 games last year and was named to the BIG EAST Championship All-Tourna-ment Team. He ranked second on the team with a .290 average, while scoring a team-high 47 runs and swiping a team-best 12 bases. Anderson started 48 games, smack-ing seven doubles and 20 RBIs. Walsh, another BIG EAST Championship All-Tour-nament selection, started 45 games and emerged as one of the Pirates’ most con-sistent power threats. He ranked second on the team with a .378 slugging percent-age and had 13 extra-base hits, including a team-high four home runs. Seton Hall also has three returners in junior Ryan Sullivan, junior Scott Kala-mar and redshirt-freshman John Beaubi-en to bolster the outfield. “We have some depth in the outfield and probably the most experience on the team is in the outfield,” Sheppard said. “I think we have a good mix of some veter-ans that have some valuable playing time under their belt as well as some capable underclassmen that will have an impact.”

PITCHERS Seton Hall ranked amongst the best in the nation last year with a 2.68 earned run average, which led the BIG EAST and was the eighth-lowest mark in the country. While the Pirates lost ace Joe DiRocco to graduation, every other key component of last year’s deep rotation returns for 2012. Sheppard said the success the pitching staff experienced last year was thanks in large part to the ability of each player to accept their role and excel at it, a trait he sees carrying over to the new season. “It didn’t matter how much work they got or what role they were in,” Sheppard said. “When they got the ball they did their job and I think that was important. It was basically the cliché that they passed the baton. The starter did his job, whoever came in for short relief or middle relief did their job and then whoever closed out just shut the door.” Junior Jon Prosinski led the team with a 1.91 earned run average last season and ranked second on the team with

seven wins and third with 56 strikeouts. He ended the year with a complete-game shutout win over Arizona in the first game of the NCAA Regional. Junior Ryan Harvey was a dominant re-liever last year, but may find his way to the starting rotation this season. He fanned 73 batters in 26 appearances, posting a 5-2 overall record and a team-high seven saves. Junior Rick Mangione, junior Frank Morris, junior Greg Terhune and sopho-more Brian Gilbert are also expected to fit into Seton Hall’s starting rotation. Man-gione had a 2.75 earned run average in 24 appearances mostly in relief Morris submitted a 2-2 record in four starts and 18 overall appearances. Gilbert started eight games with a 2-4 record and a 3.80 earned run average in 2011 while Terhune made 10 starts, win-ning four of his eight decisions. Seton Hall’s talented pitching staff will also feature senior Henry Warner, senior Benny Mejia, junior George Fernandez, junior Ed Ras, sophomore Josh Prevost and sophomore Billy Ralston. Sheppard and his staff also brought in freshmen An-thony Elia, Chris Carroll, Jose Lopez, Dan Ditusa and Conor Krauss to compete for innings on the mound. “We have some high expectations and the pitching staff is a good example of what we are talking about,” Sheppard said. “They’re not just content with what we did last year they want to improve

upon it. A lot of the guys that are return-ing are ready to show what they can do.”

SCHEDULE Sheppard has put together a challeng-ing non-conference schedule that is sure to provide a number of early-season tests before BIG EAST conference play begins in earnest toward the end of March. SHU opens the season at the BIG EAST/Big Ten Challenge where it will face Penn State, Michigan, Ohio State and North-western, followed by a three-game series at Tennessee. The Pirates will battle NCAA Tourna-ment teams Wright State and Virginia on March 2-4, before heading home for the 2012 home opener against Manhattan College on Wednesday, March 7. “Our first four weeks are going to be challenges,” Sheppard said. “We are playing some pretty good teams over the first four weeks which will be a little bit like a measuring stick to see where we’re at early in the season and where we want to be in time for conference play.” Seton Hall opens its BIG EAST schedule with a three-game home stand with Rut-gers on March 23-25. The Pirates will also host Notre Dame, Villanova, West Virginia and Pittsburgh, with road series against Connecticut, Louisville, Georgetown and St. John’s. The 2012 BIG EAST Championship will be held Tuesday-Sunday, May 22-27, in Clearwater, Fla.

Rob Sheppard was named the head coach of the Seton Hall baseball program on June 30, 2004, becoming the 17th head coach in the history of the baseball program, and just the third since 1948. He inherited a winning tradition and legacy left by his father, Mike Sheppard, Sr., who won 998 games in 31 years as coach from 1973-2003.

Rob is no stranger to the Seton Hall program, having served as an assistant coach for nine seasons under Mike, Sr. After seven seasons as top assistant to his father, Rob was promoted to associate head coach during the summer of 2001. Sheppard has built an experienced coaching staff that includes former Seton Hall pitcher Phil Cundari, Pirate standout Mark Pappas, as well as former Monmouth infielder Chris Collazo.

The 2011 season resulted in one of the most successful campaigns of Sheppard’s tenure, with the Pirates capturing their first BIG EAST Championship since 2001 to advance to the NCAA Regionals. Seton Hall earned an automatic berth into the NCAA Tournament when it defeated St. John’s University, 4-2, to win the third conference title in program history. The Pirates defeated second seed University of Arizona 4-0 in the opening round of the NCAA Regional and ended the year with 34-25 overall record.

The individual accolades poured in for the players and coaching staff throughout the year. Senior hurler Joe DiRocco was selected as an ABCA Third-Team All-American ¬¬- first Pirate to earn the distinction since 1997 - and was also an All-BIG EAST First Team honoree and named NJCBA Pitcher of the Year. Sheppard was recognized as the ABCA East Region Co-Coach of the Year for the first time in his career. During his first three seasons, Sheppard continued to force a hard-work ethic into his team, and watched it pay off. After finishing the 2006 season 17-games under .500, the Pirates ended the 2007

season 25-25. In 2008, Sheppard’s crew reached the 30-win plateau and the BIG EAST Conference Tournament for the first time since 2001. In 2009, Sheppard and his staff coached nine players to New Jersey Collegiate Baseball Association (NJCBA) awards. The honorees included Keith Cantwell, who was named the Co-Pitcher of the Year, as well as Dave Phelan, Will Walsh, and Henry Warner who were honored on the JNCBA All-Rookie Team. In addition to the in-state recognition, Sheppard had five of his players named to the postseason All-BIG EAST Teams, the most since 1995. Cantwell and Chris Affinito were named to the first team, while Sean Black and Matt Smedberg took home second team honors, followed by Matt Singer who earned his place on the third team.

The 2008 season also saw nine players named to the NJCBA squads including Corey Young – NJCBA Pitcher of the Year, and Chris Roach – NJCBA Rookie Pitcher of the Year. In addition, Young and Greg Miller were honored with post-season, All-Conference awards with Young earning All-BIG EAST First Team accolades, and Miller being named All-BIG EAST Third Team.

The highlight of the 2006 campaign came when the Pirates upset No. 11 Notre Dame and won two of the three games in the series. Dan McDonald was an All-BIG EAST Third Team selection and nine players were named to the NJCBA team with three first team selections: Luis Fernandez, Dan McDonald and Dan Merklinger.

In 2005, freshman Dan McDonald was named the NJCBA Rookie of the Year, the first SHU player to receive the distinction since 1999. John Walsh, Tim Pahuta and Dan Merklinger were also honored by the NJCBA, earning first team, and a pair of second team honors, respectively. The Pirates had two MLB draft picks, with Pahuta and Tim Sabo being chosen in the 18th round. Pahuta was taken in the 534th overall pick by the Washington Nationals, while Sabo followed at the 545th overall pick by the Chicago White Sox. Sheppard was the acting head coach in 2004, guiding the Pirates to a 17-33-1 record. Seton Hall was hampered by injuries, but managed to post some noteworthy accomplishments in his first season. SHU took a 4-2 decision over 4th-ranked Notre Dame at Owen T. Carroll Field on April 23, and followed that with a memorable 20-0 win over Villanova on “Mike Sheppard Day”. Senior Joey Scott was named the NJCBA Co-Player of the Year and also earned All-BIG EAST Second Team honors, while senior Chris Noonan was picked in the 17th round of the MLB Draft by the St. Louis. During the 2001 season, Rob earned his first head coaching experience at the collegiate level when he served as interim head coach while Mike, Sr., recovered from triple bypass heart surgery. After a slow start with Seton Hall winning just three of its first 12 games, he rallied the Pirates to a 14-4-1 record in April. After clinching a BIG EAST Tournament berth in the final weekend of the regular season, Sheppard guided Seton Hall to three straight victories and the Pirates’ first conference championship since 1987. In the NCAA Clemson Regional the following week, Seton Hall defeated top-seeded South Alabama twice to advance to the

championship round. It marked the Pirates’ most successful run in the NCAA Tournament since 1984. After helping Seton Hall to a 34-23-1 record, Sheppard was recognized for his efforts as he was selected NJCBA Division I Coach of the Year. A 1992 graduate of Seton Hall’s Stillman School of Business, Sheppard was the third member of his family to play middle infield for the elder Sheppard. Older brothers Mike and John played shortstop and second base, respectively, in the 1980s. As a college player, Sheppard helped Seton Hall to four BIG EAST Tournament appearances and served as a captain of the Pirate team that finished as the runner-up at the BIG EAST Tournament during his senior season. That year, Sheppard ranked fifth on the team in hitting and led the squad in sacrifice bunts with 15. Sheppard concluded his collegiate career with a .278 batting average, 130 hits and 58 RBI in 158 games as a Pirate. Sheppard broke into the coaching profession in 1993 as an assistant coach with the Vailsburg American Legion team which reached the New Jersey state finals three out of four seasons. In 1994, Sheppard served as the interim head coach for the Immaculate Conception High School baseball team. Sheppard is the latest in a long line of family members to become a head baseball coach in New Jersey. Mike Sr., served as head coach of Seton Hall from 1973-2003. Rob’s oldest brother, Mike Sheppard Jr., is currently the head coach at Seton Hall Prep, while his brother John is the head baseball coach and athletic director at Morristown Beard Prep School. Sheppard holds master’s degrees in Business Information Systems (December 1996) and Sport Management (May 1997) from Seton Hall. He and his wife Kelly currently reside in Millington, NJ. They have an 11-year-old son, Robert Jr., born during the Pirates’ trip to the 2000 NCAA Tournament, and a 10-year-old son, Patrick.

PHILCUNDARI

ASSOCIATE HEAD COACH

Phil Cundari is entering his 12th season on the coaching staff at Seton Hall University, but the first as its Associate Head Coach. The long-time Pirates’ pitching coach was promoted in October of 2011.

The promotion comes on the heels of a tremendous 2011 season in which the program won its second BIG EAST Championship in Cundari’s tenure. Cundari’s pitching staff, led by a pair of aces in Joe DiRocco and Jon Prosinski, led the conference in earned run average and was second in strikeouts, opponent batting average, innings pitched and hits allowed. DiRocco was named Most Outstanding Player of the BIG EAST Championship and became the first Pirate to receive ABCA All-America honors since 1997. Additionally, DiRocco and Prosinski finished the season with the only two sub-2.00 ERAs among all starters in the BIG EAST.

In his tenure, Cundari has coached 17 players who were either selected in the Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft or signed as a free agent. He currently has 11 former pitchers - Isaac Pavlik, Elvys Quezada, Chris Noonan, Tim Sabo, Dan McDonald, Dan Merklinger, Corey Young, Greg Miller, Keith Cantwell, Sean Black and Joe DiRocco - pitching in the minor leagues.

Cundari mentored B.J. Benik, drafted as both a junior and senior, towards establishing career records for innings pitched and games started. Under Cundari, Shawn Tarkington was a

First Team All-BIG EAST selection in 2001, as was Young in 2008. On top of that, Young was named the 2008 New Jersey Collegiate Baseball Association’s (NJCBA) Pitcher of the Year, while Chris Roach received the NJCBA Rookie Pitcher of the Year, and Joe DiRocco was honored by making the NJCBA All-Rookie Team.

The same campaign also saw BIG EAST Weekly honors to three of Cundari’s pitchers. Young took home the BIG EAST Conference Pitcher of the Week honors on two occasions along with conference Weekly Honor Roll. Sean Black earned a conference Pitcher of the Week award, and Matt Singer picked up a conference Weekly Honor Roll award.

Off the baseball field, Cundari runs his own private practice as a sports performance consultant. A licensed psychotherapist, he specializes in peak performance and mental toughness training for athletes of all levels.

Following a stellar three-year career for the Pirates from 1983-85, Cundari was drafted by the Oakland Athletics in 1985. He pitched in the Oakland organization for four years, reaching as high as the AA level in 1987 before his career was cut short by an arm injury.

At Seton Hall, Cundari ranks second in career wins (26), third in games started (36) and sixth in strikeouts (217) while playing just three seasons. He capped off his career in fine fashion, garnering BIG EAST Pitcher of the Year and Second Team All-America honors in 1985 after winning 12 games, striking out 98 and posting a 1.74 earned run average. Cundari’s 1.22 ERA in BIG EAST games still stands as a conference record. Cundari was inducted into Seton Hall’s Hall of Fame in February 2010.

Cundari returned to Seton Hall to earn his bachelor’s of social work in 1989. He completed his master’s degree in psychiatric social work from Rutgers University in 1990. A native of Cliffside Park, NJ, Cundari and his wife Trish currently reside in Shrewsbury, NJ. They have two children - Christina (19) and Philip (16).

RECAP: The Seton Hall baseball team cut a five-run deficit to, 8-6, in the bottom of the ninth, but fell just short dropping their season-opening game to Penn State during the BIG EAST/Big Ten Challenge. The Pirates never led in the game, but did tie the score at three in the bottom of the sixth before a five-run seventh inning broke the game open. Trailing, 3-1, Papaccio led off the home half of the sixth inning with a single down the third base line. Betz successfully sac-rificed the sophomore from Nutley to second base. After Granite ripped a single through the left side of the infield, Ryan Sullivan and A.J. Rusbarsky followed with back-to-back run scoring singles to tie the game. Offensively, the Pirates were led by Sullivan, Gusrang, and Papaccio with two hits each, while Esposito finished 1-for-3 with two runs scored and an RBI. Ed Ras suffered the loss surrendering a run, a hit, and walk, in the seventh inning. Ignas (1-0) picked up the win pitching 3.2 relief innings.

RECAP: For the second straight day, the Seton Hall baseball team battled to the final out, but came up short, as they fell to Michigan State, 5-4, in day two of the three-day BIG EAST/Big Ten Challenge. Trailing by a run in the top of the ninth inning, Ryan Sullivan led off with a walk, moved to second on a sacrifice bunt by A.J. Rusbarsky and third on a ground out to the right side of the infield off the bat of Will Walsh. However with two out, Spartan’s pitcher David Garner induced Sean Gusrang to fly out to right field to end the game. Michi-gan State (1-1) broke the, 4-4, tie with the eventual game-winning run in the bottom of the sixth inning. Offensively, the Pirates were led by Walsh who finished the game with two hits, two runs scored, and two RBI. Rusbarsky, Esposito, and Scott Kalamar each finished with two hits as well, while freshman Zach Granite picked up a hit, a walk, and two stolen bases. Garner (1-0) picked up the win pitching four hitless relief innings striking out three. Greg Terhune received no-decision for the Pirates after allowing four runs in five innings of work striking out four in just his second career collegiate start.

RECAP: Senior pitcher Joe DiRocco tossed a two-hit shutout through eight innings of work striking out six batters as the Seton Hall base-ball team picked up their first win of the 2011 season over Iowa, 2-0, Sunday afternoon. The game marked the conclusion of the three-day 2011 BIG EAST/Big Ten Challenge. After walking Iowa lead-off hitter Trevor Willis and allowing him to take second base on a failed pick-off attempt, the senior from East Hanover settled down. He fol-lowed by picking-off Willis at second base and did not allow another baserunner until the sixth inning. Ryan Harvey tossed the final inning earning his first save of the season walking one batter and striking out two including Zach McCool looking to end the game. Seton Hall broke the scoreless tie in the top of the fifth when A.J. Rusbarsky ripped an RBI single to center field. The Pirates added insurance in

the top of the sixth inning. The Hall finished with seven hits from seven different players including Delepine who also had two walks and drove in a run. Dermody (0-1) took the loss for Iowa after allow-ing two runs on four hits in five innings of work.

RECAP: The Seton Hall Pirates baseball team put together an 11-hit afternoon scoring five runs, but it would not be enough as they fell to #24 North Carolina, 10-5, Friday afternoon on Bryson Field at Boshamer Stadium. A.J. Rusbarsky increased his hitting streak to 14-games - dating back to the 2010 season - with three hits, two doubles, one run scored, and one RBI. Will Walsh also starred by driving in two runs while scoring two more. Seton Hall (1-3) broke out their retro jerseys for the game this afternoon. Similar to the ones worn though the 1980’s, the no-button shirt had the white, black, and light blue horizontal lines, similar to the old-style Houston As-tros jerseys. Jon Prosinski (0-1) took the loss after surrendering six earned runs on six hits in two-plus innings of work.

RECAP: Seton Hall baseball freshman Zach Granite finished 3-for-4 in his first game as the Pirates lead-off hitter and Sean Gusrang hit his first home run of the season, but it was not enough as #24 North Carolina defeated the Pirates, 7-1, Saturday afternoon on Bryson Field at Boshamer Stadium. North Carolina (6-0) jumped out to an early lead creating their first run by using small-ball in the first inning. Ben Bunting led off the frame with a walk and moved to second base on a successful sacrifice bunt by Tommy Coyle. Bunting then stole third base and scored a sacrifice fly ball to center field off the bat of Levi Michael. Seton Hall (1-4) came back to tie the score in the top of the fourth when Gusrang belted a no-balls-two-strike pitch over the right-center field wall for his first home run of the season, but the Tar Heels regained the lead with two runs in the home half of the fourth and four more in the fifth. Terhune (0-1) took the loss after allowing six earned runs on five hits in 4.1 innings of work.

Despite the sweep, the Pirates only allowed 11 runs in the three games, including Sunday afternoon when Greg Terhune (0-2) took the mound allow-ing only two runs on six hits while striking out seven batters in six innings of work. Behind Terhune, the game remained scoreless until the bottom of the fifth inning when the Panthers struck with two runs behind an RBI double by Jose Behar and a run scoring bunt single by T.J. Shantz. FIU starter Daniel DeSimone (2-1) took over from there shutting down the Pirates offense allowing one run on three hits strik-ing out seven in the complete game. Genovese, Sullivan, and Sean Gusrang had a hit each, and while Zach Granite (0-for-3) snapped his five-game hitting streak, but increased his on-base streak to six straight games with a walk.

RECAP: The Seton Hall baseball team rallied together in extra innings to defeat the Southern Illinois University of Edwardsville Cougars 3-2 at the Santaluces Sports Complex in Lantana, Fla. With one out in the bottom of the eleventh, senior Frank Esposito reached first on a hit-by-pitch before moving to second base on a solid line drive up the middle by Scott Kalamar. Following Kalamar’s base-hit, the SIUE pitcher was called for a balk, allowing Esposito to advance to third base. With the winning run only 90-feet away, junior Will Walsh bar-reled a sacrifice fly deep to centerfield to allow Esposito to tag up and lead the Pirates to victory. Ryan Harvey fought through 3.2 innings of work to pick up his first win of the year (1-0). Seton Hall starter Jon Prosinski went six strong innings allowing only one run on four hits, only two of which left the infield.

RECAP: The Seton Hall baseball team collected 15 hits and scored 11 runs en route to defeating Florida Atlantic, 11-4, in game one of a three game series Thursday evening at FAU Baseball Stadium. The win, which was the Pirates first against the Owls in three tries, gives the team their first two-game winning streak of the 2011 season. Ryan Sullivan picked up three of the 15 hits while driving in four runs and scoring two more as he began and capped an eight-run third inning with a grand slam. The inning was all starting pitcher Benny Mejia (1-1) would need as he struck out eight batters and allowed only one run in five innings of work. In addition to Sullivan, Walsh also picked up three hits, scored two runs and drove in another while Granite and Dale Anderson combined for four hits and three runs scored. Garton (2-1) suffered the loss after surrendering eight runs on seven hits in three innings of work.

Ryan Harvey (2-0) tossed 3.1 innings in relief striking out six batters, including two in a score-less 10th inning to earn the victory. The Pirates pushed the game into extra-innings by scoring the tying run in the top of the ninth. Trailing, 4-3, Sean Gusrang led off with a single and was promptly removed for a faster baserunner in Papaccio. A.J. Rusbarsky advanced the soph-omore from Nutley to second on a sacrifice bunt paving the way for pinch-hitter Scott Kalamar to rip a run-scoring single tying the game at four. Granite and Gusrang finished the day with two hits apiece to lead the Pirate offense, while Papaccio drove in four runs.

In addition to Papaccio, Anderson, Zack Granite, Mike Genovese, and Sean Gusrang each collected a hit.

DiRocco (3-0) threw 94 pitches with 67 of them counting as strikes and fanned six batters. In addition, he allowed only three base hits to a team that collected 39 over the previous two games this weekend. The Hall, however, would break that scoreless tie in the bottom of the sixth and added an insurance run in the seventh inning to give DiRocco all he needed. A.J. Rusbarsky led off the sixth inning with a base hit and moved to second base on a wild pitch by Johnson. Two batters later, Ryan Sul-livan dropped an RBI double down the left field line for the first run of the game.

Zach Granite led off with an infield single, stole second base, and advanced to third on another infield single by Mike Genovese. Anderson plated Granite with a fielder’s choice ground ball to the left side of the infield. The score remained the same until the bottom of the seventh. Ryan Sullivan reached base on a one-out single as did next batter Granite. Genovese one-hopped a Davis’ pitch at first baseman Tyler Kapp, who misplayed the ball, loading the bases for Anderson who belted a sacrifice fly to center field.

RECAP: The Pirates dropped their BIG EAST conference opener 4-3 to Villanova after a fourteen inning battle that spanned across two-days. The conclusion of the eleven inning tie was continued today as the game was suspended Friday night on account of darkness. After battling through thirteen and a half innings, the Pirates were unable to hold the Wildcats as Marlon Calbi led off the bottom of the four-teenth inning with a double down the left field line. Following a sac-rifice bunt, the Wildcats brought home the winning run on a suicide squeeze by David Koczirka. Mike Genovese (0-1) would go on to suf-fer the loss while the win was awarded to Julian Diaz (2-1). Genovese started the second day of the continued game throwing 2.1 innings while allowing only two hits. Sophomore Frank Morris threw 4.2 in-nings of relief allowing only two hits and striking out three.

RECAP: Joe Dirocco led the Pirates to a 9-0 victory as he threw a complete game shutout against the Villanova Wildcats in game two of their three game set. DiRocco allowed only seven hits in his nine innings of shutout work. The Pirates sparked their offense early as senior A.J. Rusbarsky lined an RBI double to the right center gap scoring fellow senior Sean Gusrang from first base after working a leadoff walk to start the inning. The offense continued to work as Ryan Sullivan led off the fifth inning with a single to right field. Sul-livan would quickly be driven in on an RBI double to right field by Mike Genovese. Sean Gusrang ripped a triple down the left-field line to score Walsh and Genovese and was soon driven in himself on an RBI single to right center by Giuseppe Papaccio to bring the Pirates to a 5-0 lead. The offense remained strong for the next two innings as Frank Esposito came alive in the top of the seventh when he drove a two RBI double to right center before Sullivan added with another RBI single to center field to bring the Pirates up 9-0.

The Pirate lead was blasted open in the third inning with the help of a grand-slam over the right field fence by junior Will Walsh. The third inning scoring rally began when Mike Genovese successfully executed a safety squeeze to bring home Frank Esposito. Although the Wildcats scored three runs in the first inning to jump to an early 3-0 lead, the Pirate pitching staff was able to shut down the Wildcat offense until the ninth in-ning when they allowed two more runs to cross the plate. The Pirate pitching was led by sophomore Jon Prosinski, who came in with two outs in the first inning to throw 6.1 innings of shutout ball. Prosinski was backed up by freshman Brian Gilbert and closer Ryan Harvey to secure the victory for the Pirates and take the series 2-1.

Two batters later, with the infield drawn in, Genovese ripped a pitch up-the-middle for the game-winning base knock. Long before the game reached the four-hour, 52 minute mark, starting pitchers Joe DiRocco and Derek Self each went deep into the game not allowing their opposition much offensively. Ryan Harvey (4-2) earned the win with five score-less innings of relief yielding only one hit while striking out 10 batters. Jeff Thompson (1-1) suffered the loss surrendering one unearned run on two hits in 2.1 innings.

RECAP: For the second straight day, the Seton Hall Pirates baseball team and the Louisville Cardinals entered the ninth inning locked in a scoreless tie, yet on Friday afternoon there would be no extra innings as Frank Esposito delivered with a two-out walk-off single to give the Pirates their second 1-0 victory in as many days. With two-outs in the ninth Dale Anderson hit a double in the left-center field gap. After Scott Kalamar got ahead of pitcher Justin Amlung with a two balls and no strikes count, the Cardinals decided to intentionally walk the sophomore before summoning hard-throwing closer Tony Zych from the bullpen. A wild pitch by Zych allowed Anderson and Kalamar to advance ninety-feet before Esposito ripped a line drive single down the right field line to score Anderson for the game-winning run. Jon Prosinski (4-4) completed the game on the mound surrendering only two hits and two walks while striking out five. No base runner for Lou-isville made it to third base against the right-handed sophomore, and in addition, they only had two runners on in an inning once.

Already ahead, 4-3, in the sixth inning, Seton Hall (24-21, 10-11) broke the game open by sending 10 batters to plate, col-lecting five runs - four with two outs - on five hits. Brian Gilbert (1-2) earned his first collegiate win after allowing three runs on four hits in six innings of work.

RECAP: Cincinnati scored two unearned runs in the bottom of the first and an insurance run in the fifth to slip past the Seton Hall baseball team, 3-1, in game one of Saturday’s doubleheader. With two outs in the bottom of the first and Justin Glass on third, Justin Riddell drew the third walk allowed by Pirates’ starter Joe DiRocco of the inning. Riddell then attempted to steal second base drawing a throw from Esposito, which was cut off by shortstop A.J. Rusbarsky ahead of the second base bag. Chris Peters started home from third on Esposito’s throw and beat the return throw from Rusbarsky by sliding under the tag of the Pirate’s catcher for the, 2-1, lead. Nic Spence would add an insurance run in the bottom of the fifth with an RBI single to give starting pitcher Zach Isler (5-2) all the run support he would need. The right-hander ended his day with a complete game surrendering one run on six hits striking out two. DiRocco (6-1) suffered his first loss of the season allowing only three runs, one earned, on one hit - a single to left field by Jake Saylor in the bottom of the fourth - and eight walks. Henry Warner relieved DiRocco by tossing four scoreless innings yielding three hits.

RECAP: The Seton Hall baseball team’s bats came alive in game two of the doubleheader as they scored 10 runs on 12 hits to defeat Cin-cinnati, 10-1. Similar to game one, Zach Granite began the game by reaching base, this time with a lead-off walk. Mike Genovese moved the freshman to third base with a single, and Sean Gusrang plated him with a single. The senior from Burlington scored the team’s sec-ond run when Dale Anderson grounded out to the left side of the in-field. With the team clinging to the two-run lead, Jon Prosinski struck out three batters and allowed only three baserunners through the first four innings before the Pirates could build on their lead. An RBI groundout by Genovese and a run-scoring single by Gusrang in the fifth doubled the Hall’s lead before they broke the game wide open in the sixth. A.J. Rusbarsky finished with three hits, two RBI, and two runs scored, while fellow senior Gusrang also picked up three hits, two RBI, and a run scored. Granite and Michael Betz contributed with two hits, two runs scored, and two RBI each to round out the Pirates afternoon. The four gave Prosinski all he would need to earn his fifth win of the season as he yielded only one run on seven hits in eight innings of work while striking out six.

RECAP: The Seton Hall baseball team came back to score two runs in the bottom of the ninth and another in the 11th to defeat Georgetown, 3-2. Trailing, 2-0, Pirates’ freshman centerfielder Zack Granite led off the ninth with a double down the left field line and came around to score on a throwing error by third baseman Danny Poplawski. The error also allowed Mike Genovese who reached on the errant throw, to advance to third base. Sean Gusrang plated the sophomore from Livingston to tie the game with a deep sacrifice fly out to center field. With two outs in the bottom of the 11th, throwing errors by Poplawski and shortstop Mike Garza allowed Gusrang and Dale Anderson to reach base before Giuseppe Papaccio dropped a walk-off single in front of a diving left fielder Paul Bello for the, 3-2 win. Joe DiRocco received a no-decision in his final regular-season start as a Pirate lasting nine innings, allowing two runs on six hits with five strikeouts. George Fernandez (2-1) earned the win with two perfect innings of relief striking out one. Pablo Vinent (4-3) suffered the loss allowing an unearned run on two hits in 2.1 innings of work.

RECAP: Mike Genovese went 2-for-3 at the plate with a walk, a run scored, and an RBI and Jon Prosinski lasted seven innings allowing two runs while striking out five as the Seton Hall baseball team de-feated Georgetown, 3-2. With one out in the home half of the first in-ning, Genovese and Sean Gusrang drew back-to-back walks and Dale Anderson singled to load the bases. Genovese gave Seton Hall a, 1-0, lead when he scored from third base on a wild pitch by Georgetown starter Tommy Isaacs and Gusrang doubled the advantage scoring on a single by Giuseppe Papaccio. In the bottom of the fifth, Will Walsh reached first base when he was hit-by-a-pitch, moved to second on a successful sacrifice bunt by Zack Granite, and scored on an RBI single by Genovese. Paul Bello, who scored the Hoyas first run, plated Danny Poplawski from second base with a single in the top of the seventh, but Pirates’ pitching held Georgetown from there.

RECAP: The Seton Hall Pirates baseball team stood a game and a half out of the playoffs on Monday, May 2, but they battled back to win seven of their last nine conference games including a sweep of Louisville and a sweep of Georgetown in which they completed this afternoon by a score of 6-3. With the game tied at three in the bot-tom of the sixth, Seton Hall plated two runs to take the lead. The inning started with a lead-off double by Dale Anderson followed by a single off the bat of Giuseppe Papaccio. The Pirates would take the lead on the next play, a botched rundown that allowed the batter A.J. Rubarsky to advance to third. Will Walsh then scored Rusbarsky with a sacrifice line out to right field for a 5-3 Pirate advantage. The Pirates’ added another insurance run in the bottom of the seventh when Papaccio was hit-by-a-pitch with bases loaded.

Seton Hall extended the game to extra-innings with two runs in the bottom of the eighth inning.

RECAP: The Seton Hall baseball team won the BIG EAST Champi-onship with a rousing, 4-2, victory over St. John’s on Sunday. The Pirates took home their third conference title with the win. Working on just three days rest, senior Joe DiRocco pitched six strong innings,

allowing just the one run on six hits with four strikeouts to improve to 8-1 on the season. His efforts earned him the tournament’s Most Outstanding Player award. Freshman Zack Granite went 1-for-2 with two walks, a stolen base, and scored three runs to ignite the SHU of-fense. DiRocco, Granite and junior Will Walsh were all named to the All-Tournament Team. SHU extended its lead to 4-1 in the bottom of the fifth after SJU shortstop Joe Panik missed the mark with a throw on a ball off the bat of A.J. Rubarsky, allowing two runs to score. From that point, four Pirate hurlers combined to navigate several Red Storm rallies, allowing only one run entering the final frame. Ryan Harvey, who had ended the SJU eighth inning effort with a strikeout, worked out of a jam that saw the tying run reach scoring position to secure the victory. Harvey tossed 1.1 innings to earn his seventh save of the season.

RECAP: Sophomore Jon Prosinski fired a complete game shutout as the Seton Hall baseball team won its ninth straight game with a 4-0 upset victory over Arizona in the opening round of the College Station Regional in the 2011 NCAA Baseball Championship. Prosinski gave up just six hits over nine innings while striking out three and walking just one. His performance lowered his season ERA to a miniscule 1.91. Senior Sean Gusrang and sophomore Giuseppe Papaccio both had two hits. Papaccio and junior Will Walsh had one RBI apiece. Seton Hall did all of their damage in a four-run fourth inning. Gusrang led off with a double down the right field line. Junior Dale Anderson followed with a single, which moved Gusrang to third base. Papaccio picked up the Pirates’ third straight hit with a single up the middle, scoring Gusrang and moving Anderson to second. A.J. Rusbarsky put down a bunt and beat the throw to first to load the bases with no outs. Walsh hit a grounder to second base and Anderson scored to put Seton Hall up 2-0 on the fielder’s choice. With Frank Esposito at the plate, Walsh attempted to steal second, and an errant throw on the steal attempt enabled Papaccio and Walsh to score and push the Pirates lead to 4-0.

RECAP: Texas A&M starter Ross Stripling pitched a complete game and allowed just one earned run as the Aggies defeated Seton Hall, 6-3, in the second round of the College Station Regional in the 2011 NCAA Baseball Championship. Texas A&M jumped on Seton Hall starter Joe DiRocco right from the start. The first three Aggie bat-ters of the game collected hits, Matt Juengel, the last of the three, knocked in their first run. Jacob House followed with a sacrifice fly to centerfield to plate Texas A&M’s second run of the game. After two SHU runs in the bottom of the second, Texas A&M re-took the lead when a House ground out allowed Krey Bratsen to score in the top of the third inning. The resilient Pirates tied the game again in the bottom of the fourth. Senior Sean Gusrang hit a lead-off double and found himself at third base after a wild pitch. Guiseppe Papaccio grounded out to short, but Gusrang scored to tie the game at three. DiRocco settled in and retired nine straight A&M batters until House singled with one out in the sixth inning. Adam Smith followed with a two-run homerun deep to right and the Aggies took the lead for the third and final time of the game, 5-3, before tacking on a final insur-ance run in the seventh.

RECAP: For a second straight game, the Seton Hall baseball team re-ceived a dominating performance from the opposing starting pitcher and was eliminated from post-season play with a 6-0 loss to Arizona. Arizona starter Konner Wade pitched seven scoreless innings and struck out two while walking four for the victory. Seton Hall starter Brian Gilbert took the loss with five innings pitched, five earned runs, no strikeouts and one walk. The Pirates mustered only four hits, two of which came from senior Sean Gusrang. Arizona got to Gilbert early with runs in the top of the first and second to give the Wildcats an early 2-0 lead. The score would remain 2-0 until Arizona broke the game open in the top of the fifth. Cole Fenzel lined a bases loaded single into right field to bring in his second and third RBIs of the day. Robert Refsnyder followed Frenzel with a ground out to short, but another run crossed the plate. The Wildcats would add a final run in the top of the eighth inning on an RBI single by Alex Mejia. Seton Hall would load the bases with two outs in the bottom of the eighth inning thanks to three walks, but Giuseppe Papaccio grounded to the short stop who calmly stepped on second base to end the threat.

SETON HALL MAKES FIRSTWORLD SERIES APPEARANCE

Six Pirates entered the 1964 College World Series batting over .300. John Monteleone led the team, followed closely by Jack Tracy (.333), Mike Cadenazzi (.323), Dick Wieczezak (.319), Tom Bon-giorno (.317) and John Sielski (.317). On the mond, Bill Matusz fol-lowed Larry Falcon’s impressive record by posting an 8-1 record with a 1.52 ERA.

The highlight of the Pirates’ first trip to Omaha occurred in their second game of the series against Texas A&M. As written by Kerry O’Connor of The Setonian:

“The Pirates were ready to pack their bags for home as the Aggies took a commanding 4-0 lead at the end of six. Finally the Pirates’ run drought ended in the seventh when they scored three times. Mike Cadenazzi, Bill Lennon, Dan Waraksa and Dick Wieczezak came through for the District II club.

“A&M came back with a single in the top of the eighth to make it 5-3, but the Priate offense had at last come up for air. Before four Aggie hurlerscould stem the onslaught, the Pirates had exploded for 11 runs. This spree set a College World Series single-inning scoring record.”

The 1964 Pirates finished fifth in the College World Series.

SETON HALL IS “CINDERELLA TEAM”OF WORLD SERIES

Coach Owen Carroll’s 24th year at the helm of the Seton Hall baseball team came wto a fitting climax with the Pirates’ second appearance in the College World Series. The 1971 Pirates caught fire after a slow start and charged through the Metropolitan Confer-ence and NCAA District II playoffs to become the “Cinderella Team” in Omaha.

Jack Donovan stymied the Uni-versity of Buffalo, 3-1, to gain his fourth-consecutive win, raising his season total to 7-3, which tied him for most-career wins with ex-major leaguer Steve Nagy. The following day, Gary Cavallo held St. Joseph’s to five hits while Paul Caffrey , Jim Lammers and Joe Abate contributed a pair of RBIs in an 8-1 win. Two days later Joe Flannery limited St. Joe’s to one unearned run as the Pirates picked up a 4-1 triumph.

In the Series, the Pirates succumbed to the defending nation-al champion University of Southern California and nationally ranked Pan American University.

Donovan’s eight complete games and five shutouts were Seton Hall single-season records. Other Pirate starting pitchers includ-ed Cavallo, Joe Flannery, Tom Griesmeyer, Marty Caffrey and Dan Miele. First baseman Jim Lammers led the team in hitting with a .359 average. Center fielder Paul Caffrey set a season record for home runs with six. Just missing the .300 mark were left fielder Kevin Toohill (.297) and shortstop Joe Gallo (.290). Steve Baris and Kevin Tennant shared the catching duties while Tom Flannery started in right field.

SETON HALL MAKES THIRD TRIP TO COLLEGE WORLD SERIES IN 10 YEARS In just his second year as head coach of the Pirates, Mike Sheppard led Seton Hall to its third visit to the College World Series in a decade. Following a 30-8-1 regular season, the Pirates earned a trip to Omaha by completing a three-game sweep in the District II Tournament with victories over Penn State University (4-1), St. Joseph’s University (4-3) and St. John’s University (11-7). Jack Cust sparked the Seton Hall at-tack in the clincher vs. St. John’s by driv-ing in six runs including a grand slam homer. His six RBIs tied the then-school record set earlier in the season by Ted

Schoenhaus. Future major league pitch-er Charlie Puleo, a freshman, posted his seventh victory against just one defeat. The 1974 Pirates were known for speed, clutch hitting (.307 average), depth and good defense. They were led by the pitching of Marty Caffrey (7-1), Puleo, Len Glowzenski (6-2), Todd Heimer (3-0), Vinnie Byron (3-2) and Joe Trotter (3-2). Behind the plate, Cerone hit .344 with seven homers and 26 RBIs. Defensively he picked off 14 baserunners and threw out 10 more. Heimer (.321) and Ricky Sposta (.333) shared the first base bag. Ed Blankmeyer (.417) and Rico Bellini

(.280) secrued the midde of the infield while Mark Costello (.273) played third base. Schoenhuas (.395) roamed cen-terfield and was flanked by Greg Jemison (second-leading basestealer in the na-tion with 20) in right and Bob Hemsworth (29 RBIs) in left. Cust and Tom Kober (.287) were the team’s designated hit-ters. Despite losing to Southern Illinois Uni-versity and the University of Texas in the World Series, the 1974 Pirates set a then school-record with 33 victories against eight losses.

SETON HALL ENTERS SERIES RANKED #9 IN THE NATION Minutes before Seton Hall was to take the field against the nation’s No. 1 team, Florida State, word was received that for-mer coach Owen Carroll had died hours before at the age of 73. “We’ve got to win this one,” coach Mike Sheppard told his team. “Not just to stay alive in the series, but to give goach one more day to live.” Starting pitcher Todd Heimer told The New York Post, “When we found out, we knew we had to do it for him.” And win they did. Seton Hall shocked Florida State, 11-0, and eliminated the Seminoles from the Series. Ricky Sposta was one of the heroes of the game, knocking in three runs with a pair of doubles. Rick Cerone contributed a 450-foot homer, his 14th of the season, and Ted Schoenhaus belted a 370-foot blast. The Florida State victory was sandwiched between hard-fought losses to the University of South Carolina (3-1) and the University of Texas (12-10).

BASEBALL TOPS ST. JOHN’S, 4-2, TO CLAIM THIRD BIG EAST CHAMPIONSHIPCLEARWATER, Fla. - The Seton Hall baseball team won the BIG EAST Championship with a rousing, 4-2, vic-tory over St. John’s on Sunday. The Pirates took home their third conference title and earned the league’s automatic bid to the NCAA Championship.

Working on just three days rest, senior Joe DiRocco pitched six strong innings, allowing just the one run on six hits with four strikeouts to improve to 8-1 on the season. His efforts earned him the tournament’s Most Outstanding Player award.

Freshman Zack Granite went 1-for-2 with two walks, a stolen base, and scored three runs to ignite the SHU offense. DiRocco, Granite and junior Will Walsh were all named to the All-Tournament Team. The Pirates entered the postseason on an eight-game winning streak, having won 13 of their last 15 contests.

The most dramatic game of the tournament run came in the BIG EAST quarterfinals, when SHU outlasted top-seeded Connecticut 4-3 in a 12-inning thriller. UConn broke open a 2-2 tie by scoring once in the top of the 12th. Dale Anderson drew a bases loaded walk in the bottom half of that inning to bring the winning run to the plate and send the Pirates through to the conference semifinals, where they again defeated the Huskies, 12-2.

SETON HALL DEFEATS VIRGINIA TECH FOR BIG EAST TITLE, 5-2

BRIDGEWATER, N.J.. – Junior shortstop Chris Carter went 3-for-4 while sophomore right-hander Chris Reilly battled through six innings to lift Seton Hall past Virginia Tech 5-2 in the championship game of the BIG EAST Baseball Tournament at Commerce Bank Park.

Seton Hall junior left-hander Isaac Pavlik closeed out the series. The Pirate closer struck out the first two bat-ters before Brad Bauder kept the inning alive with a double. He then struck out John West to give Seton Hall its first BIG EAST Championship in 14 years.

Pavlik, who was also celebrating his 21st birthday, earned his second save of the tournament and seventh of the season. He also established a BIG EAST Championship record with his fourth career save in tournament play. Pavlik was voted the Most Outstanding Player of the championship.

Seton Hall pounded out 15 hits and had runners on base in every inning. Casey Grimm, who had seven hits in the tournament, went 3-for-4. Joe Cuervo, Joe Scott and Kevin Leighton all added two hits each. Christian Simmers had three of Virginia Tech’s eight hits. The three Pirate pitchers combined for 12 strikeouts.

PIRATES EDGE VILLANOVA TO CAPTURE 1987 BIG EAST CHAMPIONSHIP

BRISTOL, CONN. – Seton Hall University defeated Villanova University 10-9 to win the 1987 BIG EAST Baseball Championship at Muzzy Field in Bristol, Conn.

The game was a rematch of the BIG EAST semifinal meeting between the two schools, which Seton Hall dominated in the form of an 18-1 win.

Seton Hall designated hitter Maurice Vaughn earned championship Most Valuable Player honors, finish-ing thre three games hitting .500 (6-for-12) with seven runs and seven RBIs.

Seton Hall jumped out to an early 5-1 lead in the championship tilt before Villanova answered with six unanswered scores to take a 7-5 lead into the eighth. In the bottom half of the eighth, Seton Hall saw its first six batters reach base, part of a five-run inning that turned the momentum back in its favor for good.

Freshman left hander Kevin Morton started the game and struck out six Wildcats in 5.2 innings of work. Vaughn finished the game going 2-for-3, scoring twice and recording a pair of RBIs. Marteese Robinson (2-for-4) and John Valentin (2-for-4) also had multiple-hit days at the plate for Seton Hall.

RECENT MAJOR LEAGUERS Three years after former St. Louis Cardinal pitcher Matt Morris was named The Sporting News Comeback Player of the Year, Morris helped the club to the best record in the majors and a trip to the World Series in 2003. The Cardinal ace finished with a 15-10 mark and a 4.72 ERA. He recorded 131 strikeouts in 202.0 innings. The former Seton Hall ace made the first All-Star Game appearance of his career in 2001 and went on to finish third in the voting for the National League Cy Young Award. Morris left the Cardinals at the end of the 2005 season and currently plays for the San Francisco Giants. Houston Astros second baseman, Craig Biggio, became just the ninth player to collect 3,000 hits with the same team on June 28, 2007. The four-time Gold Glove winner, made his 17th consecutive start on Opening Day in 2005, building onto the franchise record. Biggio, the Astros’ all-time leader in hits and doubles, ranks in the major league’s top-100 all-time for career runs scored. Biggio helped the Astros to the League Championship Series after hitting .281 with 24 home runs and 63 RBI in 2003. In 2005, Biggio became the only player in Major League history to reach all of the following milestones: 600 doubles, 250 HR, 2,700 hits,and 400 stolen bases. In addition, Biggio led the Astros in 2005 to their only appearance in the World Series where they were defeated in four games by the White Sox. Following the end of the 2007 season, Biggio announced his retirement after 20 successful seasons in Major League Baseball. Former Pirate ace Jason Grilli, spent 2011 with the Pittsburgh Pirates, where he appeared in 28 games and posted a 2.48 earned run average. A former first round pick of the San Francisco Giants, Grilli has played for six different teams over his 11-year professional career. John Valentin played 11 seasons in the majors with the Boston Red Sox and New York Mets. He last played in the majors in 2002, appearing in 114 games for the Mets. Valentin spent much of his career playing with Vaughn on the Red Sox and hit .279 with 124 home runs and 558 RBI. He also finished in the top 10 of balloting for the 1995 MVP award. Mo Vaughn retired after spending the 2003 season with the New York Mets. The Seton Hall career home run record holder played 12 seasons in the pros, hitting .293 with 328 home runs and 1,064 RBI. Vaughn won the 1995 AL MVP award, while with the Boston Red Sox.

MIKE SHEPPARD’S HUSTLER’S BASEBALL SCHOOL

NEW JERSEY’S FIRST FAMILY OF BASEBALL Organized and run by New Jersey’s first family of baseball, the

“HUSTLER’S” camp staff is comprised of members of the Sheppard family and long-time coaching associates.

Coach Sheppard’s sons are also key members of the coaching staff. Mike, Jr. led his Seton Hall Prep team to the 1997, 1998, 1999 and 2000 Greater Newark Tournament titles. A premier teacher of the game, Mike’s team was the top-ranked team in New Jersey in 2001.

John is the Head Baseball Coach and Athletic Director at Morristown Beard High School. His squad has won the Prep School state championship three of the last five years. John’s specialty is power hitting and infield play.

After seven seasons as an assistant coach at Seton Hall, Rob was promoted to associate head coach where he helped in the development of the Pirates fundamental skills, and is now head coach of the Pirates.

Shep’s nephew, Tim Byron, a former Seton Hall great and six-year member of the New York Yankee organization, was a member of the 1997 inducted class for the SHU Athletic Hall of Fame. He led his Old Tappan team to the state championship in 2000. Byron will headline the pitching instruction.

Phil Cundari, a 1985 All-American at Seton Hall and a professional player in the Oakland Athletics organization, is in his fourth season as the pitching coach at Seton Hall.

Mike Cocco will also return as an instructor. Prominent area coaches along with several of Shep’s current and former professional players come to campus to teach and demonstrate their skills.

A full-time certified trainer will be on duty to administer to the campers’ medical needs.

CANCELLATION POLICY All requests for cancellation must be made in writing to the camp office. All monies paid with the exception of the $50 administrative fee will be returned if the written request is made at least one week prior to the start of camp. No refunds will be given less than one week prior to camp. Fees will be applied to a future camp.

CAMP PHILOSOPHY The best coaches and players in the area will be providing instruction in all phases of the game. Your goal should be to learn the right way to improve your individual skill level so you can make the “team” and play your “best.” There will be large and small group instruction with individual instruction, feedback drills, skill acquisition, exercises and instructional games. This is an action camp and the drills and games are designed for that purpose. Players will be grouped by age initially; they will be adjusted according to skill level and the nature of the drill.

LOCATION AND FACILITIES The Hustlers Baseball School uses the Owen T. Carroll Baseball Field. The field features two batting cages and five pitching mounds. For our little leaguers, small diamonds are available on the Ivy Hill Complex on the lower part of campus. In case of inclement weather, the Brennan Recreation Center and Walsh Gym are equipped with two batting cages and all-purpose mounds.

FOR MORE INFORMATION, CALL THE SETON HALL BASEBALL OFFICE AT 973-761-9557

FOR HIGH SCHOOL PLAYERS... This section of the camp is a “Prep” portion to evaluate and prepare the player for his next level of competition. Players get a chance to showcase their talents while receiving excellent instruction in needed areas identified by evaluation. This “Prep” section is a must for aspiring baseball players. College recruiting and academics will be discussed. Check off the “Prep” section on your application.

Every Camper Will Receive: Camp T-Shirt • Skill Evaluation Sheet • Individual Instruction

In keeping with the camp’s philosophy of individual improvement of the player, enrollment is limited to small numbers to aide in the individual instruction. Enroll early to ensure a spot.

MEMBERS OF THE BIG EAST CONFERENCE

THE BIG EAST CONFERENCE

The 2011-12 academic year is the 33rd in the history of The BIG EAST Conference as the unique consortium marches on competing at the highest level with integrity and sportsmanship.

The BIG EAST has gone through membership changes since its birth, but the 2011-12 year marks the conference’s seventh straight with the same 16-member group, making for the nation’s largest Division I-A conference.

The BIG EAST Conference’s goals have always been the same. The outstanding performances of the student-athletes at BIG EAST schools are evidence of the league’s proud tradition of success. The league has always been able to boast that many of its best students are also its best athletes. The 2010-11 year was no different.

Seven BIG EAST student-athletes were named NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship winners, while 22 earned Capital One Academic All-America recognition. Maya Moore, Connecticut’s women’s basketball standout, won the NCAA Honda-Broderick Cup as the nation’s top female student-athlete and was chosen as the Capital One Academic All-America of the Year.

In the athletic arena, BIG EAST student-athletes again enjoyed success on the national stage. The Connecticut men’s basketball team won its third national championship, completing a magical run through five games of the BIG EAST Championship and six wins in the NCAA tournament. The Villanova women’s cross country team won the NCAA title for the second straight year and the ninth time overall. The Notre Dame women’s soccer team won its third NCAA title, while BIG EAST teams reached national championship games in women’s basketball (Notre Dame) and men’s soccer (Louisville).

The BIG EAST placed two teams in the NCAA Women’s Final Four for the second time in the last three years as Connecticut joined Notre Dame in Indianapolis, capping a season in which the Huskies extended their NCAA-record winning streak to 90 games.

Individually, BIG EAST student-athletes won five NCAA championships, including an unprecedented four by Villanova’s Sheila Reid. Reid was the 2010 individual cross country champion, a member of the Wildcats’ winning indoor distance medley relay team and won the 5,000- and 1,500-meter titles in outdoor track & field. Louisville’s Matt Hughes, meanwhile, repeated as the NCAA champion in the 3,000-meter steeplechase at the NCAA outdoor meet.

Moore and Reid joined Notre Dame soccer standout Melissa Henderson as winners of Honda Sports Awards as the top performers in their respective sports. Moore also became the first three-time winner of the Wade Trophy as the nation’s top women’s basketball player and joined Villanova lacrosse player Brian Karalunas as winners of the Lowe’s Senior CLASS Award.

BIG EAST football maintained its national profile as a competitively balanced group.

Connecticut claimed the league’s Bowl Championship Series bid for the first time as the Huskies shared the conference title with Pittsburgh and West Virginia. Six of the league’s eight squads went to bowl games and helped the BIG EAST post a 4-2 bowl record for the second straight year.

The BIG EAST became the nation’s largest Division I-A conference in 2005-06 when five new members began competing – the University of Cincinnati, DePaul University, the University of Louisville, Marquette University and the University of South Florida.

BIG EAST institutions reside in nine of the nation’s top 35 largest media markets, including New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., Tampa, Pittsburgh, Hartford, Cincinnati and Milwaukee. With its newest members, BIG EAST markets contain almost one-fourth of all television households in the U.S. When Texas Christian University joins the conference in the 2012-13 academic year, the conference will have a footprint in 30 percent of the nation’s television households.

Since opening its doors in 1979, the league has won 31 national championships in six different sports and 133 student-athletes have won individual national titles.

In 2003-04, Connecticut became the first school in NCAA history to win the men’s and women’s NCAA basketball titles in the same season. In ’02-03, the BIG EAST became the first conference in NCAA history to win the men’s and women’s titles in the same year when the Syracuse men and the Connecticut women captured their respective national championships. In men’s basketball, BIG EAST squads have won four of the last 13 NCAA championships. BIG EAST women’s teams have taken seven of the last 12 NCAA titles.

Proactive movement has been a signature strategy for the conference that was born in 1979. The BIG EAST continually turns challenges into opportunities to become stronger. The conference currently crowns champions in 24 sports.

The BIG EAST became a reality on May 31, 1979, following a meeting of athletic directors from Providence College, St. John’s, Georgetown and Syracuse universities. Seton Hall, Connecticut and Boston College completed the original seven school alliance.

While the membership has both increased and changed, the focus of the BIG EAST has not wavered. The conference reflects a tradition of broad based programs, led by administrators and coaches who place a constant emphasis on academic integrity. Its student athletes own significantly high graduation rates and their record of scholastic achievement notably show a balance between intercollegiate athletics and academics.

Any successful organization has had the good fortune to have outstanding leadership. The BIG EAST primarily was the brainchild of Dave Gavitt, who was the conference’s first Commissioner. Michael Tranghese, the league’s first full-time employee, and for 11 years the associate to Gavitt, became Commissioner in 1990. In his first year, he administered the formation of The BIG EAST Football Conference.

John Marinatto, who had served as senior associate commissioner, moved into the Commissioner’s chair in 2009 and has continued to steer the conference on its path of success.

The league has long been considered a leader in innovative concepts in promotion and publicity, particularly regarding television. Those efforts have resulted in unparalleled visibility for BIG EAST student athletes. The conference has enjoyed longstanding relationships with CBS, ESPN, Inc. and ABC.

BIG EAST men’s basketball games are regular sellouts at campus and major public arenas, including the annual men’s BIG EAST Championship in Madison Square Garden. The women’s basketball championship has led all conferences in attendance for the past eight years. Attendance figures also are significant in soccer and baseball.

The BIG EAST has its headquarters in Providence where the conference administers to more than 5,500 student-athletes.

From there, train, bus or walk to the neighborhood of your choice. Time Square’s Theater District: plays and musicals. Upper Fifth Avenue, dubbed Museum Mile; venerable institutions like the Metropolitan and the Guggenheim. Head Downtown and check out the financial district including the New York Stock Exchange. Besides the cultural and entertainment opportunities New York’s burrough of Manhattan provides, many students take advantage of internships with museums, nonprofit and government agencies, law and accounting firms, television and print media - the list goes on and on.

The Hall’s campus expands dramatically when you include the surrounding areas. Hop the train to the next town west, Maplewood, for a slice of pizza, or two stops and you are in Millburn with great sushi restaurants or just a few more and your are in Summit where you can do shopping at clothing stores like Benetton or Roots, Inc.

PATRICK

LYONSDirector of Athletics and Recreational Services

Patrick G. Lyons was named Director of Athletics and Recreational Services at Seton Hall University on February 22, 2011.

Lyons comes to Seton Hall after spending seven years as Iona College’s Director of Athletics. Lyons’ student-athlete centered vision was incorporated into several initiatives at Iona. Working closely with the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC), Lyons emphasized a community service element for all of Iona’s 400+ student-athletes and 21 Division I athletic programs. He has also shown a deep commitment to student-athlete development and academic standards through additional support services and facilities in both the compliance and academic services offices.

Under Lyons, the Iona athletics department has seen unprecedented growth and success both on and off the fields of play. The men’s cross country team continued its storied success earning a second straight national runner-up finish at the NCAA Championship in November 2008. The program has finished in the Top-10 at the national championship in each of the last nine years. Along with the University of Wisconsin, no other program has seen the same success. The men’s and women’s basketball programs have established a reputation for being one of the top programs in the MAAC. The women enjoyed their most successful five-year stint in program history and have made three postseason appearances in the last four seasons. The men’s program earned an NCAA Championship appearance in 2006, won 21 games in 2009-10 and has continued to rank among the leaders in the MAAC and the New York Metropolitan Area.

Other Gael programs that saw success under Lyons tutelage have been the women’s cross country team with five straight MAAC Championships, the softball program earning its first ever bid to the NCAA Championship in 2010, the men’s soccer program with a MAAC Regular Season Championship in 2009 and a MAAC finals appearance in 2010. The volleyball team reached the NCAA Championship in 2004 and returned to the MAAC finals in 2010. In addition, Iona’s women’s lacrosse and women’s water polo programs continued to excel in 2009-10.

Where Lyons truly made his mark at Iona has been in fundraising and improvements made to athletics facilities. The Iona Gaels Capital Improvements Fund was created by Lyons as the first capital fundraising effort in the department’s history. Among several enhancements, the most dramatic and impressive changes were the opening of both the Hynes Athletics Center and the Judge Student-Athlete Academic Center in January of 2006. Lyons also oversaw the complete renovation of the varsity locker rooms - where each program now has its own space for the first time in school history, the addition of a video screening room for its athletic programs as well as the resurfacing of both the Hynes Center basketball/volleyball arena floor and the surface of Mazzella Field, home

of the soccer and lacrosse programs. In addition, Iona created Rice Oval Softball field, the first on-campus home for the softball program.

Before elevating to his current role, Lyons was the Associate Athletic Director for External Affairs. In that role, he was responsible for all revenue generation by the athletics department with primary oversight of the department’s fundraising arm - The Goal Club. This included, but was not limited to, all fundraising activities and marketing for the department including the annual golf tournament, sponsorships, and the annual fund.

Prior to that role, Lyons served as Assistant Athletic Director for Compliance. He oversaw all NCAA, MAAC, and institutional policies and regulations, as well as team scheduling, student-athlete financial aid, the student-athlete advisory committee, and payroll for all staff as well as student-workers. Lyons also coordinated the NCAA certification process, from the self study to on-campus visits.

As a coach, Lyons led the Iona golf team to its most successful four-year span. At the helm of the Gaels from 1998-02, he directed the squad to three MAAC Championships and earned a berth in the NCAA Golf Championship in each of his three full seasons.

A native of Providence, R.I., Lyons was a two-sport standout in hockey and golf. One of the most prolific scorers in school history, Lyons tallied 80 goals and 90 assists during his 86-game career and led all of NCAA Division I hockey in goals per game during the 1995-96 season. He captained the golf team during his junior and senior seasons and in 1996, received the Joseph O’Connell award, given annually to Iona’s most outstanding student-athlete.

In 1999, Lyons earned his master’s degree in teaching from Iona and earned an MBA from the Hagan School of Business in 2004. Lyons has also served as an adjunct professor in both the Biology department at Iona and the Sports Business Management program at Manhattanville College.

Lyons has served on several committees at the national and conference level. He is a member of the NCAA Division I Championships and Sports Management Cabinet where he serves as a liaison to the men’s and women’s ice hockey committees. Lyons served as the Chairman of MAAC Cross Country Committee and previously as chairman of the MAAC Committee on Athletics Administration. He also serves on the MAAC Marketing and Strategic Planning Committees.

Lyons is married to the former Rachel Cintolo, a pediatric nurse practitioner and clinical faculty at Columbia University.
