He came up big today with five innings in Sachem North‘s 6-4 victory in a League II showdown against Bay Shore at Bethpage Ballpark. Joshuel Rodriguez countered him for Bay Shore and both pitchers were sharp through three innings, as the game was scoreless. The Marauders got on the board in the top of the fourth on two wild pitches to take a 2-0 lead, but the Arrows answered back with a huge fifth inning. Matt Ingraffia started things up with a lead off walk and advanced to third o...
Sachem North 2020 Season Preview
by Tony Genualdo After making the playoffs in 2018, Sachem North last season looked to make another playoff run. Unfortunately, they came one game short of getting back. A few injuries to the team seemed to have been the coup de grâce due to not having enough depth on the roster. The parity in League 2 was pretty remarkable as six of the seven teams remained in playoff contention until the last game of the season. Ultimately, Sachem North was unable to seal the deal and clinch a berth as they did in 2018. But this year is a new year, and Coach Tom Gambino is excited to see who will step up for the team. “It will be a fun competition to see who takes jobs,” Gambino said. “Many young guys will have an opportunity to play a significant role for us.” Out of the three starting pitchers last yea...
Where Are They Now: Alec Sole
Trailing West Islip in the first round of their playoff game, things weren’t looking too promising for the Arrows of Sachem North. While they were one of the top teams in League 2 all 2011, all it takes is running into one hot team in the single-elimination postseason to end a season. That all changed with a late-inning rally that delivered a 3-2 victory that helped stave off elimination and propel them into the next round of the playoffs. Once that happened, the team would never look back. “After that victory, we said to ourselves ‘alright we’re gonna win this thing’, said Alec Sole, as he reminisced on the best season of his life. The Arrows went on a hot-streak from that point on, rattling off consecutive wins against Northport, Pat-Med and Eastport-South M...

Sachem North Ready For the Grind of League II

Sachem North Head Coach Tom Gambino has been at the helm since 2005 and knows the league inside-and-out and he recognizes this as well. “Connetquot and Commack are the heavy favorites,” said Gambino. “Connetquot is bringing back almost everyone from last year. Every team in the league is good,” he added. Four teams were represented in the postseason, including these Sachem North Arrows, who finished the regular season with a record of 11-9, before dropping both playoff games to Commack and Longwood. To add to the challenge, the team graduated their o...
Who Is Jack Gonzalez?
Sachem North made a surprise playoff run in a difficult League 2 this season thanks to a strong pitching staff led by Chris Lollo, Kevin Kochen and Jack Gonzalez. Lollo is at Washington College, Kochen is at Queens College and Gonzalez announced yesterday that he has committed to St. Thomas Aquinas. They are coming off an appearance in the Div-II College World Series, where they won the first two games before falling just short of the ultimate goal. Gonzalez is a crafty left-handed pitcher that works in the 78-79 MPH range, but has tremendous command of his pitches. He had a very good summer with Motus Academy, where he was named to the All-Tournament team of the WWBA in Georgia. He will be leading the Arrows’ rotation in 2018 as they look to build on this year’s 11-win season....
