Sunday. Memorial Day Weekend. VSA Roma’s 2010 squad was down 3-0 at halftime to a team that had beaten them 9-6 just two months earlier. Sure, they’d already accumulated some tournament medals over the course of their season, to the…
Pretty cool to get a chance to play with his pre-pandemic teammates at halftime of Union/Montreal match on April 23. Very cool to have scored one of the goals in a 2-2 draw!
Work-related announcement (long overdue, no less): I started a podcast as part of my job at Jefferson and I’m really enjoying it! A great way to showcase the talent across all areas of academic pursuit at the school, it’s related…

I’d like to thank Bryce Harper for making that the best decision imaginable (they’ll be back in town, the bride was working anyway, yadda x3) by throwing a ball in between innings to Louden.
