The Hyannis Mets faced the Y-D Red Sox at McKeon Field while the Cotuit Kettleers traveled to Bourne for their opener. Although those games were momentous, the one that local folks will want to pay attention to happens to- morrow when the Kets and the Mets face each other in Cotuit for the first of six games that will determine the owner of this year's Patriot Cup. The 2006 Cup will be the third to be awarded since its creation by The Barnstable Patriot in 2004 to recognize that Barnstable is the only Cape town with two teams in the League. For each of the past three seasons, the Cup has been awarded to the team that has won the most head-to-head games. In 2004, the Hyannis Mets won the inaugural contest Mets. Last season, though , the Mets couldn't catch a break and the Kets took possession of the coveted prize. This year's battle for the trophy marks a tiebreak that should add another dash of excitement to the games. The competition gets un- der way tomorrow at Lowell Field in Cotuit. The game is set for 5 p.m. and so far the weather appears promising. Given that this is the kick- off match in the race for the Cup, a review of the rules is important. The trophy is awarded to the Barnstable team that wins the most head-to-head matches throughout the season (i.e., games played against each other) . In the event that the teams are tied in the end, at three games each, a tie- breaker will be necessary. The following methods will be used should there be a need: 1. Fewest Runs Allowed - the team that al- lowed the fewest runs during all games will be named champion. If this doesn't work, it will be followed by 2. Most Strikeouts - the team with the most strikeouts wins. If a tie- break is still necessary, then 3. There will be a baseball bat toss by the team captains. Wouldn't it be neat to see that bat toss? Whether you follow the race for the Cup or simply love a good baseball game. be sure to show up in Cotuit Saturday evening. After all, this is where "the stars of tomorrow shine tonight," The race is on! CONTINUED FROM PAGE A:10 ous connections made in the course of organizingthe event. The Otis Air National Guard was a key partner, he said. The 102d Fighter Wing loaned an American flag that on Oct. 2, 2002 wasflown over Ground Zero, former site of the World Trade Center tow- ers in New York City before they were destroyed in terror- ist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. Tech Sgt. Michael Garth led the color guard, and Master Sgt.ChristianFiore sang "The Star Spangled Banner " and "God Bless America." The game itself was a see- saw battle , not the most artistic contest ever to grace Lowell Park, owing in part , no doubt , to both teams ' lack of recent action thanks to rain and their schedules - the Military All-Stars, 20-2 on the season with the vic- tory, hadn't played in a week while the Cape Leaguers, with representatives from nine of the circuit's 10 clubs , had never played as a team and hadn't been on any diamond in game action since their college seasons ended. But at least two of the Cape Leaguers had been team- mates before - Barnstable High School alumni Matt Costello and Rich Tri. Costello was wearing the Kettleers ' home pinstripes , while Tri was wearing a Chatham As uniform. Both are with their Cape League teams on tem- porary contracts , hoping to land spots for the full season. Costello said he was "a little bit" disappointed not to play in the game-Roberts got most of the squad in. but Costello was held out because he was scheduled to pitch three in- nings in an exhibition against the Great Lakes League's Co- lumbus All-Americans Tues- day. Still, it was a thrill to be able to call himself a Cape League player. "It's pretty amazing," said Costello, now at Iona. "I got picked for the team I wanted to get picked for." "It' s real exciting, " said Tri, who plays at Central Connecticut. "It'sa great op- portunity for me." He admitted to being ner- vous his first time at the plate, when he was called out on strikes, but he redeemed himself by leading off the next inning with a picture-perfect bunt single, getting on base as the potential tying run late in a one-run game. He was stranded at third as the Cape League squad , leading 10-7 after six, was unable to regain the upper hand after the Military All-Stars plated four in the seventh. Military All-Stars head coach Lt. Cmdr. Terry Allvord of the U.S. Navy expressed regret over the Chatham can- cellation , and said he hopes to come back and play there next year, perhaps bringing the team for a longer Cape stay. "They treat us well. It's fun coming to the Cape," he said. "The (league) leadership is fantastic and everybody did a great job." Military All-Stars... Donovan marks year one; looks toward future By Kathleen Szmit Manwaring kmanwaring@barnstablepatnot.com When Sean Donovan took the position of head coach for Barnstable High School' s varsity baseball team he knew he'd have some big shoes to fill. Former coach Pete Auger had certainly made an im- pression during his 13 years with BHS, leaving behind something of a legacy. Although the team had its share of struggles during the 2006 season,it canbe saidthat Donovan is doing his best to fill those shoes. "I had fun," he said of his inaugural year that ended with a 12-8 record. "It went well." The beginning of the sea- son arrived in the midst of an abundance of wet weath- er that made outdoor play challenging. Nonetheless the spirits of the team weren't dampened. Under Donovan's watchful eye the team demonstrated strength and determination with players like Adam White, TJ Loumiotis, Zach Wilson, Tim Norton and John Atsalis leading the charge. It was no surprise when the Raiders made it to the tournament ,though they suf- fered a serious defeat at the hands of Boston College High. Undaunted by the 23-3 loss, Donovan feels it could ignite next year's players. "To lose by such a large margin may motivate the guys to work harder," he said. With three top players -Loumiotis, White and At- salis- having graduated,Don- ovan is aware that there will be a bit of restructuring next year. "Losing three seniors, it will obviously impact the team because they all played together,"he said. "But I think we've got a lot of different guys who have some good experience playing." As many returning players will spend their summers playing for local leagues , Donovan is looking forward to another successful season next year that includes a re- turn trip to the tournament. "Maybe we'll be on the other side," he said.
