----------------------------------------------------- Our second Dawg training on Feb 5, started to really warm us up. We arrived to an empty field, but the soccer players and frisbee players soon heard that we were there, and everyone wanted to watch our fantastic practice. This time, we lasted more than two hours, until 10:20 PM, later than usual. We did an intense rotation of ground balls, fly balls, bunting and fielding practice, and finished with a scrimmage/batting practice featuring pitching from Shmuel, Jeremy, and newcomer Steve Kronengold. Attendance report:

Veterans: Shmuel Goldstein, Jon Dym, Jeremy Shai, Danny Epstein, Yaniv Gohary Newcomers: Eli Fagan, Yehudah Kronengold, Steve Kronengold, Hilik Besser

Next practice: Wednesday, February 19, At the Sport-Kef in Rishon LeTzion, 8 PM. If there is rain, we will inform people by 4 PM, and postpone the practice to the 20th. Note that the practice for the 12th will not take place, because of the rain, Baruch Hashem. -----------------------------------------------------

DG-Tech sponsored us this year. 2002 saw the emergence of Shmuel as a bona-fide pitcher. We also saw the emergence of the Rehovot Softball League as a bona-fide "farm system" that supplied no less than 6 players for the Dawgs this year. 2002 also saw a new sponsor: DG-Tech, a technical writing company, and the adoption of the name "Dawgs". Jon Dym joined the team this year, and offered his services as coach. Shmuel stayed on as manager. Jon once managed the team that evolved in to Penticon. At the time the team was sponsored by Lachish Tours. We ended up winning 3 games - two againt the Elmhurst Dairy Mets, and one against ZionTours, believe it or not. You see, ZT had Blair pitching, and we just hit and hit him to no end. We could not win against our traditional rivals, Tri-United.
