1st Alumni Baseball Game
26 former Beckman Baseball players took part in the 1st ever Alumni Baseball game on January 29th. The day was organized by 2012 graduate Zack Rivera, and was attended by former Patriots representing every year from 2007-2016. In the game, 2017 Patriots defeated the Alumni 12-10. However, the highlight of the day occurred in the 8th inning. Trailing 10-0, Jeff Boudreau (2007) hit a Home Run to left field. It was ruled on the spot as being a 10-Run Home Run to tie the game. Kyle Boudreau (2009) Edgar Zamora (2009) Brandon Trinkwon (2010) Tyler Carso (2010) Will Barring (2011) and Ricky Navarro (2011) were just a few of the notable alumni in attendance.
