St. Joseph’s Golden Eagles announced their 2021 schedule this week, and they will be opening up on March 13, at home against Mount St. Vincent.
They will play a 26-game regular season against Skyline Conference opponents only. Those opponents will be Mount St. Vincent, Old Westbury, St. Joseph’s-Brooklyn, Merchant Marines, Farmingdale State, Mount St. Mary’s and Maritime. The final series will be May 1 and 2, with back-to-back double headers.
The playoffs will be May 7-9 at the highest seed with a lighted facility.
It may seem like a long time ago, but the Farmingdale Rams are the reigning champs, which was in May 2019 when they defeated Old Westbury at home. St. Joseph’s will go into the season with a very strong team, but they will have to replace co-aces Anthony Papa and Tim Woodford, the latter of which transferred to Old Westbury for their master’s program.
Head Coach Rick Garrett is back home after a scary bout with COVID-19, he is fortunate to have made it back to his family, and we are certainly grateful for that as well.
