Look, I understand Preseason Awards means nothing. And it’s even tougher to pinpoint the top players when there was no season the previous year. But we did it anyway. The list is based upon my observations, videos that were set in over the past year and conversations I’ve had with coaches as well.
Below are the first, second and third Preseason All-Long Island teams. Additionally, we named some honorable mentions because it was extremely tough to limit it to just 45 players. Included in the first team is Preseason Pitcher of the Year and Player of the Year:
Preseason Pitcher of the Year: Tommy Ventimiglia, Longwood
Preseason Player of the Year: Tyler Cox, Clarke
