Huntingdon Valley Senior American Legion Baseball Tries To Bulid On A Succesful Last Season
Huntingdon Valley (HV) looks to build on a very successful 2012 season which
made the playoffs for the first time in over 19 years. After losing in the 3rd
round of the double elimination tournament, HV has high hopes again this
season.
"Last season showed that with a team that is willing to learn and follow a game plan anything is possible" Head Coach Evan Horn said, "Last season was very
special to us but this season is a new one and with the group of kids I have I feel that this season will be just like last season but hopefully with a much better ending"
The coaching staff is 3rd year Head Coach Evan Horn (also coaches at William Tennent high School). The assistant coaches are 3rd year Coach Mike Landes (also coaches at Lower Moreland High School) and 1st year Coach Jan Margolis
"I love coaching with Mike he keeps me and the kids on our toes and at the same time makes this experience very fun. We have coached together at all levels
and I just love him around. Jan is a first year Coach with us. Jan has had success at the lower level and when he asked if I needed his help I couldn't pass it up"
Back from a 17-5 team are All-League players Matt Meyers, Paul Buckley, Rafael Fernandez, Ross Goodman, Matt Lawlor, Callan Palmer and Lewis Palmer also back are Matt Hyman, Jordan Pocrss and Jack Titus
"We do have a ton of All-League players back but the addition of Ryan Killion, Brian Buckley, Mark Rushton and full seasons from Jordan Pocrass and Jack Titus I really feel that we are as good if not better then last season" Horn continued, "Pitching will be the key as always and we go 8 pitchers deep. That goes with the fact that we have lost our ace pitcher for the season (Matt) Lawlor (arm surgery). We are starting the season with a really good starting rotation and feel very confident that we will be successful"
HV will have new comers Brain Buckley, Ryan Killion, Mark Rushton, Nick Cerruti, Mark Dougherty, Peter Ebert, Lance Goodman and Sean Weiss.
"The new kids coming in have a lot to live up to" Horn continued "I believe that the addition of Ryan (Killion) teams wont be able to pitch around Matty (Meyers). Them two together should really do some damage.
HV will play a total of 21 League games and up to 9 Non-League games for a total of 30 games over a 6 week period of time. HV starts it season with a non-league game Tuesday against power house Bristol and its first league game will be this Thursday against Southampton at home.
