POWER PITCHERS OF RGMVM SOFTBALL The 2003 Big League power pitcher of the year was Kate Scotko. After seven years at RGMVM Kate has brought a new dimension to girl’s softball at the league. She was the first windmill pitcher and opened the door for other girls to follow. Through her example other girls are now taking windmill lessons, playing travel ball and competing at the high school level. This spring Kate will be finishing her career at Stella Maris H.S. . Next year she will be moving into the NCAA ranks on the Molloy College softball team. The Senior Division pitcher of the year was Samantha Stallone. Sammy led the way for Glendale Diner on the mound with her tremendous control and determination. Sammie is undefeated in the last two seasons for the Diner. Sammie makes her entire team better behind her by pitching and not just throwing. This quality sets Sammie aside from the rest. Sammie starts her High School career this spring and will take her game to the next level. The sky is the limit for young hurler Stallone, who continues to prove she is one of the best big game pitchers at RGMVM. In the Major league Division, Dayna Ferran’s power pitching made her the standout on the mound. Dayna was undefeated in the 2003 regular season. She was also undefeated in play-off competition. The ace on Schawaroch Chapels, Dayna led her team to victory in the 2003 Major Division World Series championship. As a student of Diana DiGilio and Julie Bolduc, Dayna has many years left at RGMVM and many championships ahead of her. Since Kate Scotko started the trend in windmill pitching, the RGMVM softball program has a full arsenal of up and coming power pitchers and they deserve mention. Kayley Ferran, Lynn Schiano, Krystil Hofmann, Olivia Auman, Cecilia Ehressmen, Johanna Rice, Nicole Croquez, Stephanie Bristol and Danielle Esposito are all expected to keep this program strong for many years to come.

Continuing our series on pitchers of the year within each division at RGMVM, the Minor Division pitcher of the year is Joseph Santoro, who had an outstanding year in leading his team, 104 Roller Hockey, to the championship. Joseph went undefeated for the year and the play-offs. He also appeared in the All-star game for the Minor Division and again showed why he was the power pitcher in the Minor Division for 2003. The Rookie pitcher of the year is Chris Piteo, who also helped lead his team, the Metro Stars, to the championship. Chris also was the lead pitcher on the 8 year old travel team, the Bulldogs, and helped lead them to the NY State combined AABC / Federation Championship and a New York PONY Championship. Pitching for the Bulldogs, throughout the regular season, playoffs, tournament and Fall Season, Chris had a combined 16-3 record with a sparkling 2.17 e.r.a and 2 saves thrown in for good measure! These statistics are especially noteworthy since the Bulldogs played in an older league (9/10 year olds) in the Fall season. Chris has proven to be a real power pitcher for his age, striking out 187 batters in his 105 innings of work. The highlight of Chris's season of highlights occurred during the Fall season Diamond Pro's playoffs, where he pitched a complete game 4-3 victory over Yorkville. Yorkville is a team made up of 10 year olds and it turned out to be their only loss of the fall season! Chris has 4 seasons left to play at the RGMVM complex so his accomplishments are sure to grow. For now, he is the Rookie Power Pitcher of the Year.

RGMVM Little League held a celebration party last week for the two girl’s softball teams (Minor Division 9-10 team and the Junior 13-14 year old teams) that won the New York State District 27 Championships during the summer tournaments. There was plenty to eat and drink and the players got to see each other once again to celebrate. A good time was had by all that attended. This years honored teams were the 9-10 year old Minor Softball Division Champs & the 13-14 year old Junior Softball Division Champs. RGMVM Little League would like to extend a special thanks to Little League’s District 27 Administrator Harold Weissman for attending the celebration. RGMVM President Pat Piteo made a very inspiring speech explaining to the players that the memory of winning a district flag would always stay with them. He also spoke of the teamwork & dedication the players demonstrated which enabled them to achieve their accomplishment. He stated that players who kept up their interest in the sport would someday play on their High School & College teams. Pat also gave a very nice thank you to the parents. He reminded the kids that their parents are always there for them and support them in all their endeavors. Pat, Mike Scotko (Division Player Agent), and Mark Ferran (Asst. Player Agent) then presented all the players with championship team-picture plaques that showed the girls posing with their District 27 flags. The girls were then presented the players with their Championship team jackets that were donated by the league to show off their excellent accomplishment. Vice President Al Erdmann, Director of Softball Mike Scotko, Head player Agent Arlene Erdmann, Tournament Director Mark Ferran, Treasurer Cora Modica, Umpire in Chief Rich Adams, Rookie Player Agent Rob Hoffman, & Secretary Heather Hoffman were all on hand to recognize and cheer the players as the awards were presented. A very special thanks to Rich, Al, Arlene & Cora for extra help with the set up. Happy Holidays to all…...
