Thank You....Ludlowe Basketball
In December, I wrote about my experiences about being a student manager for Ludlowe basketball and baseball.
The 2016-2017 Ludlowe basketball season came to an end last night.
Since graduating high school in 2013, I have still been around the teams....a lot. It's been a blast.
Due the the fact that I'm graduating college in May, I'm going to need to get a job. That being said, I realize that last night is probably the last time I will be around the basketball program on a close to everyday basis.
Who knows, depending on a job I get, if I will still go to some games, or even if I might be covering the teams.
With that being said, many people to thank.
First off, Josh Marko, who was the basketball coach and I managed freshman baseball for him. I never managed basketball for him as he resigned, but I never would have thought of managing basketball if it wasn't for Coach Marko asking me about it.
Brian Silvestro, who was the varsity head coach for the three years I was the manager. He was not only a coach, who I enjoyed helping out and doing whatever was needed. He became a friend and someone who would (and still does) push me with school work and other life things.
John Dailey, thank you for allowing me to continue to be around the program after I graduated when you took over as varsity coach.
To all the other coaches, sub-varsity and volunteer assistants...Thank you.
Alex Borusso, Kevin Mason, Kieran Kilbride, Colin Sullivan and Jack Began. All of these people (sorry if I missed anyone) were varsity managers at one point or another in the last four years. Thank you for allowing me to hang and help you guys out. Sorry if I did too much. You guys were fantastic and I can't think of better successors.
To all the players, from guys like Kevin Bentivegna and Erik Krumins, who were seniors my first year, through this years team, thank you for allowing me to be a part of the team
This is a program that I am so thankful for being a part of. I'll always have the managers pride and I'll always follow this program.
Baseball season ahead. Falcon Pride forever!
