Last Weeks Program

Joe Sottolano, Head Coach of Baseball at the USMA, gave a rousing presentation of his philosophy on both coaching, general recruiting, future recruiting and revenue producers. No, Joe doesn’t possess the “Philosophers Stone”, an imaginary stone or substance capable of transmuting the baser metals into gold, long ago sought by alchemists; but he does have the wisdom, judgement and actions of the philosopher with patience & fortitude under all circumstances, thereby producing shining examples on the baseball diamond! Great program, Joe!

Phil Brillante’s Safety Tip

“Phil wasn’t here but he thinks of us,

During his travel’s, by air or bus,

His thoughts follow those from last week,

With roads so dark daylight can’t peek.

So use great care, especially at dusk,

For the upcoming night we cannot trust!

Prez Jerry’s Pushcart - Jerry says:

“ A Thanksgiving dinner that’s soon to be

So buy a new shoit - then wear it again!
