Long Ball hitters were Art Raimo, John McCarthy, Ms Dean, Mrs. Jenkins, Maddy Bowman, Bryce Galey, Matt B, Michael Butler, Jelani Jenkins, AJ's sis, and many more that showed mad skills hitting 33 mph hangers served up by our coaching staff and varsity players. Mark Hamilton will contiinue to kick footballs. Michael Bata....showed skills in the infield too.
Joel Rosenblat topped out at 70mph on the radar...with a little work in the offseason, there may be baseball in your future. Thanks to Lauren Costello for making this a great day at GC for students, alums, friends and families.

GC Travels to Southern Md, Win 11-6 Over SM Ryken
Take Route 5 to Leonardtown on any given day and you will find God's country. One day removed from April Fools day, the GC Falcons played their game without tricks, hoaxes, or hype. Blue collar workmanship was the order of the day, as drawn up in the Falcons practice sessions. The weather was foggy, misty, the mood focused. Each player's resolve to win was evident, as coaches bantered about past games and what was to be. The bus trek ended as a spectacular view of the water next to the ball field was revealed. April 2nd, all roads led to Leonardtown for the Falcons baseball team.
