It’s always an exciting day when the League/Conference MVPs are announced because after the Long Island Championships, you’re expecting a slow news day and then the list drops and it’s another hit of news.
To be fair, the list didn’t actually drop but I was able to find out the winners and here they are.
Quick note: Nassau opted to award a Most Valuable Position Player as well as Most Valuable Pitcher, whereas Suffolk just named one player. Naturally, many players in Suffolk will feel slighted if they felt they had a case to win. The next big announcement will be the two Diamond Award winners as well as the Carl Yastrzemski Award, Paul Gibson Award and Silver Slugger.
Nassau County:
I- Vin Mallon (Massapequa), Liam Carroll (Massapequa)
II- Co-Winners: Patrick Sanchez (Calhoun), Luke Orbon (New Hyde Park)
Tyler O’Neill (Mepham)
III- Nick Roselli (Division), Hayden Leiderman (Roslyn)
IV- Luke Vaccaro (North Shore), Patrick Dalton (Bethpage)
V- Tyler Cox (Clarke), Vinny Giambona (Island Trees)
Suffolk County:
I – Rafe Schlesinger (Sachem East)
II – Coltrane Calloway (Bay Shore)
III – Dylan Johnson (Newfield)
IV – Dominick Carbone (Rocky Point)
V – Luke Schartner (Bayport-Blue Point)
VI – Tucker Schiavoni (Pierson)
