Michael
Sangiorgi- Mike has never been known for his baseball/softball skills. However, he has always been known as a great athlete. From the time Mike was a young kid that was starting on the
Wyckoff traveling hoops team we knew he was a great athlete. However, coach
Toal repeatedly questioned his physicality and toughness. Coach would say things like, "hey Mike, put a P on your head and I
ain't going to tell ya what that stands for". "Hey Mike you
betta take your tough guy pills!" "Hey Mike you
betta get a little stronger and start lifting some soup cans". As Mike grew older all of this hard work and torture began to pay off. He became a force to be reckoned with in the paint and even began to throw elbows even though coach
said he did not even know how to throw an elbow. He also guided the
Jr. raiders to a perfect 33-0 as the starting quarterback. When he went on to
Ramapo he continued his excellence on the court and on the field earning his spot as a
Marist football player. At ramapo he was
a Second Team All-NBIL Division I selection, and an All-League quarterback in high school As I stated earlier Mike was never known for his softball skills but things are starting to change. He is currently batting a team high .875 and has been a gem on the mound. All
Doolies are pleased with his performance up to his point and they are really starting to count on him at the plate. With
Pezzementi questionable at this point for the next few weeks with a potential serious injury to his non throwing thumb the
Doolies may have to lean on
SanGiorgi more and more. COP-A-FEEL! Congrats on your accomplishments and stay humble because we DON'T need another Willy on this team...one is just perfect!(Willy being perfect!) hmmmm.....coincidance?
Please share other fond memories if Mike in the comments section.
Sorry I also forgot some important details. Mike ran one year of track where I am prettty sure he placed in the county in the 400m freshaman meet, and oh yea Michael is the son of Roenzo and Nancy Sangiorgi.
ReplyDeleteAs the cow said to the farmer in the morning... thank you for the warm hands, and kind words.
ReplyDeleteTrue fact I have the Gold Medal for the the NBIL Freshmen 400m and I should have a 400 4X4 Gold Medal but Mel was injuried by another Doolie and placed on DL for the race, causing our team to go with Andy Chin and finish with the Bronze.
i meant to bring this up earlier today but during the game i heard the third base coach say "we care about saving lives more than we care about winning softball games." In no way do i disagree with this man at all because life is the most valuable thing on this earth but i felt this shows how much passion we have been playing the game with and now other teams are starting to take notice! r we hungry for a title this year?! fuck yea we are! and we are more focused than ever!
ReplyDeletethanks for the shout here chach... and _____ your post fits well... Life is the most important thing, and the reason i couldnt run in that 4X4 is that willy tried to take mine the day before we had to run it... Thanks willy... Ill never forget it!
