Patriot Cup
competition
starts tomorrow
By Kathleen Szmit Manwaring
kmanwaring@barnstablepatnot.com
Last
night marked the
official start of the
2006 Cape Cod Base-
ball League season. 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!

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.
Keeping an eye on the ball
