Fall Baseball 2017
August 8, 2017

Easton will be participating in our annual 2017 Fall baseball league in conjunction with other high schools in the area starting in early September. Freedom, Phillipsburg, Salisbury, Whitehall, PV, and Stroudsburg are a part to just name a few. Generally, it includes about 10 teams and the season runs through approximately mid October. Generally, the schedule will have us playing two games a week on average during school days from Monday through Thursday. We do not have any scheduled weekend games which allows players to play tournament ball on weekends if they so desire.

The league is not affiliated with Easton High School Athletics due to PIAA rules out of season. Therefore the league will charge a fee for each team and player to pay for Insurance through USSSA, Balls, Umpires, Shirts and other league costs. The cost is determined by the need for all of the listed expenses. Again - The school does not pay for anything related to this program in the fall. The league feels the costs to be very reasonable as the goal of the league is to provide players with an outlet to improve their game in an inexpensive way.

In the past a fee of $125 was charged - we would expect that figure to remain constant. This fee can be made out to Easton Baseball.

Players entering grades 8-12 are welcome to participate. We will field two teams based on age and grade level and ability level as well.

Players interested in participating in the fall - there are no tryouts or cuts. All players will be included in the league. Players should send Coach LaDuca their the following bits of information by Wednesday August 23.

Easton Falls to Stroudsburg in District XI Playoffs
May 23, 2017

By Mike Kuhns | poconorecord.com

STROUDSBURG – Stroudsburg has squandered its fair share of leads late in games this year.

The Mounties weren't about to let a victory slip through their fingers in the District 11 Class 6A playoffs.

After watching Easton tie the game at 2 in the sixth, Kyle Albert drove in the winning run in the bottom half of the inning on a deep sacrifice fly to lead the No. 8 Mounties to a 3-2 victory over the No. 9 Red Rovers on Monday at Stroudsburg High School.

The victory salvaged a sensational start by left-hander Nate Kitchell (3 hits, 9Ks, 3 walks), and reliever AJ Denny worked out of a bases-loaded jam in the seventh by getting a fly ball to center to end the game.

The opening-round victory advances Stroudsburg (15-7) into a meeting on Wednesday with top-seeded Parkland, this year's Eastern Pennsylvania Conference champion.

Albert has been a key hitter for the Mounties all year. His deep fly ball plated Chad Dorst for the winning run against the Rovers. "Coach told me to get a pitch in the middle of the zone and drive it deep, score the run," Albert said. "The first two pitches, they were down and it was a 2-0 count and I was looking for a fastball and I hit it."

Denny, who relieved Kitchell in the sixth, didn't make it easy on himself in the seventh. After getting the first two outs in order, the lefty gave up two infield hits sandwiched around a walk to load the bases. But he got Eddie Olsen to lift a fly ball to center to end the game.

It ended a game in which Stroudsburg left runners on base in every inning – 11 in total. Luckily for the Mounties, Kitchell was on his game. The lefty had eight strikeouts through four innings.

"With the conditions I think I threw great," Kitchell said. "Balls were wet. Everything was all damp."

Stroudsburg coach Phil Stokes said the senior left-hander was, "on fire."

"He's such an electric kid on the mound and he was able to figure it out," Stokes said.

Working with a 2-0 lead – Kitchell drove in a run on a single and Stroudsburg scored a second on an error in the first inning – Easton got a run back in the second inning. Kitchell walked Olsen to start the second and then allowed a double off the bat of Cam Hubbard, making it 2-1.

Kitchell sat Easton down in order in the third, and after a one-out walk in the fourth, got the next two batters on strikeouts for his seventh and eighth of the game.

"I've really enjoyed him," Stokes said of Kitchell's impact. "Our senior group has been good. We've got 10 of them and I couldn't be more proud of the way they've handled every situation of the season."

Easton tied the game in the sixth on an RBI single, but Denny got a strikeout to end the inning.

Dorst led off the bottom of the sixth with a walk, and after Ben Stokes' bunt single and Emmett McCauley walked the bases full, Albert lifted a deep fly to right field for the winning run.

"We've had a couple of close games," Albert said. "We've had a variety of walk-offs. It always seems we're in it right to the end, so I think that's a great quality to the team."

Stroudsburg will travel on Wednesday to play Parkland at 4:30 in the quarterfinal.

"We're looking for some revenge, so we're excited about that," Albert said.

Nazareth baseball surges ahead with win over Easton
April 20, 2017

By Greg Joyce | lehighvalleylive.com

Ben Suter lived life on the dangerous side Thursday afternoon.

With his Nazareth baseball team already trailing Easton 2-0 in the third inning, Suter loaded the bases with one out. He then buckled down and struck out the next two batters.

Again in the fourth, the Red Rovers put runners on every bag with two outs and couldn't cash in as Suter got a fly ball to keep it a two-run game.   

"I just figured if we were going to win this game, we can't give up a lot of runs," the pitcher said. "So I just fought through it." Suter's offense soon rewarded him for it as the Blue Eagles rallied for four runs in the top of the fifth en route to a 5-2 win over Easton at Richards Field.

"Really, (Suter) won us the game getting out of those two innings," Nazareth coach Bryan Wolf said. "That's a huge EPC win for us. Any time you come down to Easton on their home field and get a W, that's huge."

The Blue Eagles (7-4) have now won four straight and are surging at the right time as they enter the gauntlet part of their schedule. The win over the Red Rovers (4-4), Nazareth's first since 2013, comes on the heels of a 7-5 win at Whitehall on Wednesday.

Senior Cade Stoneback drove in the winning run in both games. On Wednesday, it was a three-run home run in the seventh inning and on Thursday it was a line drive single that scored Ian Henderson and made it a 3-2 game.

"I was just keeping my head small, looking for singles," Stoneback said. "We have excellent momentum. We're playing better as a team, we're actually awake in the dugout now and our bats are coming alive tremendously."

Henderson, Steven Stasolla and Nick Skirtich each drove in a run in the inning, with some help from a pair of Red Rovers errors.

With the 4-2 lead in hand, Suter went back to the mound in the bottom of the fifth and came through with a shutdown, 1-2-3 inning. Then after Nazareth added a run in the sixth, he did the same thing again in the bottom of the inning.

"That was huge," Suter said. "The morale just had a huge swing over to our dugout after that."

The junior pointed to his fastball command as key to getting out of the jams. He located the heaters when he needed to most, finishing the day throwing six-plus innings with six strikeouts while scattering eight hits and two walks.

"Ben's the ultimate competitor and when he's on the mound, he thinks he is going to beat the opposing team no matter who it is," Wolf said. "The way Ben is, he's fearless."

Stoneback relieved Suter with a man on first in the top of the seventh and needed just five pitches to pin down the save.

Henderson went 3-for-3 out of the leadoff spot with a run and a pair of RBIs while No. 9 batter and senior shortstop Kevin Wagner added a pair of hits and a sacrifice bunt that led to a run.

The Blue Eagles had hit the ball hard in the early innings but often found gloves — including a pair of stellar grabs by Easton center fielder Cam Hubbard and shortstop Sean Boylan. They stuck to the same approach, though, and it finally paid off late.

"I kept telling them when they came off the field from defense that we were having really good at-bats," Wolf said. "The balls weren't falling, but I just kind of told them to keep having good at-bats, they'll fall. They did. We kept good approaches all day, hit line drives, ran around the bases a little bit and made things happen."

Hubbard added a 3-for-4 day at the dish with a run scored for the Red Rovers and Eddie Olsen and Boylan each added RBI singles, but clutch hits were otherwise tough to come by.

"I believe the game was lost when we had bases loaded in consecutive innings and didn't score," Easton coach Carm LaDuca said. "We could have lengthened that lead and made the game a whole different kind of game. And then defensively, we fell apart in that (fifth) inning. … It was very frustrating today because we feel like we had the opportunity to win that ballgame and we didn't execute." The Red Rovers still have a chance to win three out of four games this week if they can bounce back Saturday against Bethlehem Catholic.

"Credit to Nazareth for getting out of it (the jams), but we talked about having better at-bats and doing a better job," LaDuca said. "Our practices have been all about putting balls in play with less than two outs and giving yourself up to get those runs in. The kids are trying and I'm not slighting them. This is a difficult game, as we all know."

Rovers Support EPC Initiative Fighting Pancreatic Cancer (Lustgarten Foundation)
April 19, 2017

Please read the league press release and support our cause by clinking on the link below to join the Rovers in this great cause!

This preseason, Parkland senior pitcher, Michael Jenkins' father passed away after battling pancreatic cancer. Some of the Emmaus baseball players went to the viewing for Mr. Jenkins and immediately wanted to do something to help the family and offer their support in a meaningful way. While we are all opponents on the baseball field, each and every one of us is on the same team against cancer. Unfortunately, there are more players than just Michael Jenkins whose family members are negatively impacted by cancer each season. Our league has many great players, coaches, family members, and members of the community. It is time that we come together as teammates to do our part and play against cancer.

This year, on April 22, all the EPC teams are playing a league game on a Saturday and this will be our Strike Out Cancer Game for all teams that want to participate. Players of participating teams are seeking donors to pledge for every offensive hit and strikeout from their pitching staff. All of the proceeds will go to the Lustgarten Foundation for pancreatic cancer research.

In this fundraising campaign, everyone wins. Our players will play their best for reasons way more important than batting averages and ERA's. The performance of our players will raise money and awareness for the Lustgarten Foundation. Lastly, while we battle on the playing field, our programs will support one another in this effort. We will come together as a league and show that we are all on the same side as we attempt to Strike Out Cancer.

Please join the Rovers and use the following link! Thank you!

Rovers fall to Liberty in EPC Opener
April 8, 2017

By Greg Joyce | lehighvalleylive.com

Sammy Kraihanzel had himself a day at the plate Saturday, going 4-for-5 with four RBIs and even a stolen base.

But it was the senior's relief pitching that had the biggest hand in the Liberty baseball team's win over Easton.

Kraihanzel provided a calming touch to an otherwise chaotic game as the Hurricanes beat the Red Rovers 11-5 in an EPC Steel Division matchup at Richards Field.

"I'm always looking to go forward to the next pitch, regardless of what happens," Kraihanzel said. "I'm usually one of the most level-headed kids on the team, so I'm usually the one picking them up. Just gotta keep calm."

Kraihanzel took over on the mound in the second inning as Liberty was clinging to a 6-3 lead. He allowed a two-run single to the first batter he faced to make it a one-run game, but got out of further trouble and escaped the jam.

In the third inning, Kraihanzel loaded the bases with one out on an error, a walk and a single, but again locked down to keep Easton off the board.

From there, Kraihanzel recorded three straight 1-2-3 innings, the first of which almost came as a shock to those in attendance — a 10-pitch frame that lasted a fraction of any other half inning before it.

"That was the greatest," Kraihanzel said. "Got to sit down for a little bit."

After starting the game at third base, Kraihanzel didn't allow a run over the final five innings while striking out six and allowing only two hits.

Meanwhile, he and his teammates kept on hitting to record their second EPC win in less than 24 hours.

"Sammy can do a lot of things," Liberty coach Andy Pitsilos said. "He can start, he can relieve, he can throw three or four pitches for strikes at any time. On a lot teams, he'd be their No. 1. It just happens we have a lot of depth pitching. He plays third base also, so we won't kill his arm. He'll be in relief most of the year and he can just come in and throw strikes and he has good secondary pitches." Kraihanzel was just one of a handful of Hurricanes who made an impact at the plate. Shortstop Elias Gross went 3 for 5 with two doubles, a triple and two RBIs; second baseman Jake Morgan went 3 for 4 with a walk and an RBI; and catcher Jared Burcin went 1 for 3 with a triple, a sacrifice fly and two RBIs.

After beating Nazareth 11-2 on Friday afternoon, Liberty hung another 11-spot on Easton and looked like their bats were in midseason form despite playing just their third game of the season after a pile of rainouts.

"We're all hitting the ball pretty well," Kraihanzel said. "We were just ready to go after the first loss to Wilson West Lawn and not playing while everyone else had three or four games. We were just ready to go."

Easton, which ended the Hurricanes' season last year on this same field in the District 11 quarterfinals, had answers for Liberty's early punches but couldn't keep up.

After going down by two runs in the top of the first, the Red Rovers came back with three runs in the bottom half of the inning, including a two-run single from Stephen Baiardi. And when the Hurricanes took the lead back in the top of the second, Easton responded by closing within 6-5 in the bottom half of the inning on another two-run single, this one from Eddie Olsen.

"For a young team, we were happy with the way our kids responded after the first and second innings, but let's face facts: we made some mistakes against a very good hitting team that you can't make," Red Rovers coach Carm LaDuca said. "… That's a good hitting team over there. We're a young group, we're learning and I think it was important to see themselves match up against a very good team today. Now we know what we have to work on and how we have to move forward."

Easton's pitching staff racked up eight walks, which hurt their case for a comeback. After losing 177.2 of its 179 innings from last year's district championship squad, the Red Rovers are still trying to find and build up pitching depth as the season goes on.

"I know our pitching coaches are working very hard with a lot of the guys and we're doing our best to try to figure out where we're going with things," LaDuca said. "If we can get good work from Eddie and (Scott Poulson) and then complement a few other guys, we'll be okay. I think we're going to be okay."

Any issues with the time of the physical or any conflicts must be addressed with Coach LaDuca and Rochelle Gilbert our head trainer. We strongly suggest YOU be there at the assigned time.

5. Parent Orientation Meeting will be held at 6pm on Thursday March 2 in the main gym for all Spring Sports and then breakout rooms for each individual sport also.

6. First day of PIAA practice and tryouts are Monday March 6, 2017!
