With that said, it is a new era for the Marauders, who not only graduated several impact players but also longtime head coach, Mike Herbst, retired following the season. He is replaced by Coach Christopher Schiro, who was happy to share his thoughts on the upcoming season in an interview with Axcess Baseball. “I would have loved the opportunity to be on board last year’s staff with t...
Coltrane Calloway Sends Bay Shore to Conference II Finals
Coltrane Calloway fires a 4-hit shutout and Bay Shore advances to the Suffolk Conference II Finals with a 1-0 win over Connetquot ! pic.twitter.com/FryTZ6oBMO — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) June 16, 2021 When Mike Herbst announced that this would be his last season at the helm for Bay Shore, I had a feeling they would make it a special year. The Marauders seem determined to fight to the bitter end – as they defeated Connetquot, 1-0, to advance to the Suffolk County Conference II Finals against Huntington on Friday. Ace Coltrane Calloway was lights-out, firing a 4-hit shutout against a tough Thunderbirds lineup. The pitching match up lived up to the hype. Connetquot sent ace LHP Sean Mileti to the hill against Calloway. The lone run that scored in the game came in the first in...
Will Deriso Ties It, Rocco Stola Wins It For Northport In 8-6 Thriller
Final (8 innings): Northport 8, Bay Shore 6 WP: Jason Schwartz Rocco Stola drove in the game winning runs with a 2-run double in the eighth pic.twitter.com/LWJKccIYXo — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) May 18, 2021 By the time Rocco Stola laced a two-run double to right center field to score the go-ahead runs for Northport, the first inning was nothing but a distant memory. We had already seen a game-tying, two-strike, go-ahead home run in the previous inning and a game-tying error in the previous half inning that briefly put a scare in the Tigers. Northport would go on to hold on, by the score of 8-6 over previously undefeated Bay Shore, to improve to 5-2 on the season. All told, it was an intense game between two outstanding ballclubs on Tuesday afternoon in Bay Shore. The Marauders ...
Mike Herbst Hoping His Final Season Will Be One to Remember
Mike Herbst wants to go out with a bang. The longtime Bay Shore head coach notified his athletic director today that 2021 would be his final season at the helm. He has been with the program since 2005 and the head coach since 2010. He stated that this is a special group and this is the one he wants to go out with. Last season had the makings of a deep postseason run as well. Their seniors included OF Ryan Brewer (Johns Hopkins), 6’4 Jayden Colon who opted to go into the military and LHP Ryan Smerechniak (Ithaca). Brewer hit .429 with 20 RBI, 12 runs scored and .571 OBP in 2019 and was set to bat in the middle of the order. All three of those players were difference makers and Herbst feels that they would’ve been a really special group. They wound up playing in the Boys of Summe...
Q & A With UCF-commit Jason Ambos
Uncommitted 2022 Jason Ambos pic.twitter.com/yYLHaxBE6V — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) November 29, 2020 It’s not often that a Long Island-born position player is able to play at a powerhouse Division-I program in the south. It’s even more rare to do thrive once you get there. It’s such a competitive atmosphere and the players from the south are simply at an advantage when it comes to hitting the high-end pitchers. Jason Ambos, a Bay Shore-native, but now at Elev8 Academy in Delray Beach, FL., recently announced his commitment to play at University of Central Florida in the AAC Conference. Ambos is a left-handed hitting outfielder with lightning in his bat and great speed. He plays summer ball for Team Steel. UCF was off to a 15-3 start in the 2020 season and well...
