SUNY Adirondack student athletes and coaches recognized
Casey Job, head coach for the SUNY Adirondack Baseball Team, was named Coach of the Year in the Mountain Valley Conference.
The baseball team qualified for the NJCAA Region III Tournament for the second straight season. The men completed the regular season with a 17-8 Region III record and traveled to Genesee Community College for the sub-regional games. After splitting the first two games and being one pitch away from advancing, they lost a 2-1 heartbreaker in 10 innings.
In addition to Job’s recognition, the Mountain Valley Conference also gave awards to players Aaron Cook, shortstop; Nate Corhouse, outfielder; Matt Zita, catcher; and Max Perrotta, pitcher.
Infielder Aaron Cook was named to the Region III First Team and outfielders Nate Corhouse and Matt Zita were named to Second Team.
