GO JUMBOS!!! 3/10/09 A nice boost to the program was received just as we embark on our spring trip. Four more members of the Diamond Club have been added to the rolls. All 4 are renewals which speaks volumes about the loyalty of Tufts baseball players. Special thanks to the "founding fathers" of the Diamond Club Brian Symmons '98 and Jon Mugar '99 for all their dedication and support over the years. Muges and Symmy have been instrumental in the success of the Diamond Club, we are very grateful for their efforts. Joining his teammates Matt Marengi '99 hand delivered his renewal a week ago. It was great to spend a few minutes with Marenge and thank him personally for his support.

We appreciate Jack's support and look forward to seeing him at the golf outing in May. 2/26/09 A second wave of support has been added to the 2009 Diamond Club team ranging from the class of ’52 to the class of 96. Leading the charge to support Jumbo baseball are Oscar Porter ’69 and new diamond Club member Robert Cyboron ’70. Perennial Jumbo baseball supporter from the class of ’77 Mark Fisher has stepped up to the plate with his renewal in ’09 and 1950 World Series participant Bob Taft ’52 has once again showed his support for the baseball program. Dr. Matt Zipoli, a Jumbo captain along with fellow captain and now Costa Rican resident John Shelvey have come through in a big way once again. Finally the class of ’96 closes this wave of support with the renewal of Diamond Club members Matty Lyman & Dana Nielsen. We are already 50% of the way to last year’s membership number and our goal is to increase our total membership by at least one. Thanks Jumbos.
After announcing the top of the 2009 Diamond Club line up last week, we get to announce the heart of the order. The 4th through 7th members to renew their membership to the Diamond Club are Tom Snarsky ’85, Tom Walsh ‘94, Pat Fernan ’99, and Mike Ward ’90. Thanks guys, your support is greatly appreciated. In these tough times your help financially means so much to us but more importantly is the continuous support and loyalty you show to the program.

We are pleased to announce the first three members to show their support for Tufts Baseball by renewing their membership to the Diamond Club. Mr. Anthony DeTeso A’44, Colin Cash A’95, and Jamie Pinzino A’97. What a wonderful gesture by Mr. DeTeso to show his support all these years. There is a long tradition of pride and excellence associated with Tufts Baseball and Tufts University as evidenced by the support of all of our alums. Jamie, currently the baseball coach at Bryant University, is embarking on their first year in Division I. Jamie has done great things at Bryant in his tenure and we all wish him the very best of luck this season. A special thanks to Colin who has filled a big void with his sponsorship of the golf tournament and Diamond Club membership. Don’t hesitate to contact us at John.Casey@tufts.edu if you have any questions about the Diamond Club. Thanks Anthony, Colin and Jamie, you’ve gotten us off to a great start. That’s what the top of the lineup is supposed to do!

After terrific senior seasons, two Tufts Alums, Brian Casey and Bryan McDavitt played in the NEIBA All Star game at Fenway Park on July 22nd 2007. The College Division, made up of DII and DIII all stars beat the University Division, comprised of DI all stars, 2-0. McDavitt started at first base and made a great play n an errant throw early in the game which kept the University players off of the bases and unable to score. Brian Casey entered the game at second base in the third inning. Brian Casey drove in the first run of the game with a line drive to right field to sac in the runner from third. That was all the college division would need to get the win.
