I am beyond blessed to announce my commitment to further my baseball career at Monroe Community College. I would like to thank Coach Brust, Coach Petrossi, and the rest of the MCC Coaching staff for this amazing opportunity.

I am excited and thankful to announce my commitment to play Division 1 baseball and continue my academic career at Mercyhurst University. @HurstBaseball Thank you to @JimmyLatona20 and @JNelli21 for the opportunity. Let’s go Lakers!

Next on “Look Who’s Coming to SUNY Niagara!”… From @NiagaraTwolves, Conor Forkey of @McQuaidJesuit HS! Four-year letterman (53-37 overall record) 2x Section V Class AAA champion (2025, 2026) 2026 season stats: .327 AVG, HR, 12 RBI, 6 2B, 1 3B, 13 SB #RollWolves

A championship isn’t the only measure of a season. Sometimes the greatest victory is becoming the kind of teammate, competitor, and person who is ready to come back and chase it again. Some of our guys will be chasing success on the diamond next spring in college and high school, while others will be moving on from the game, but in both cases we are confident that the American Legion baseball experience has better prepared them for those challenges. We are grateful for the Veterans at Cottreall-Warner Post 942 for their sponsorship and support, as well as the volunteers who run District 7, NYS, and the State Tournament, and we are looking forward to running it back to defend our back to back D7 titles and finish the job at states in 2027. @MCLegionBSBL @NYALBaseball @PickinSplinters @gametime585

“This is all about representing the veterans at your post. Honor, integrity, character. 
I love it. And I think our guys did that the whole season.” Cottreall-Warner fought to force a winner-take-all game, but fell in the championship-deciding game of the NYS American Legion Tournament on Wednesday. @PickinSplinters pickinsplinters.com/2026/07/…
