    Sponsored by Union Bank February 23, 2013 I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for your generosity. As I humbly stood waiting for my name to be called [at the Scholarship Awards ceremony], I walked proud and full of emotion as I heard my name through the loud speakers. After I was photographed, I sat down and then opened up the brochure in order to see my name once more, and that is when it hit me; I was overcome with an immense feeling of appreciation as I thought to myself about what a prestigious recognition I just received. The feeling of accomplishment that I felt at that moment will remain with me forever. It is people like you who give me the strength and motivation to keep my dream alive of earning a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration. I am inspired like never before. Your thoughtful donation helps me as I continue my plight to better myself and those around me. Helping this world to become a better place is my ultimate goal in life, and you have lit a fire beneath me!

  • Former Tide Pitcher Dustin Mcgowan Wins Hutch Award
    Former Tide pitcher wins Hutch Award McGowan now a reliever for Marlins By Mike Riddle POSTED: December 26, 2016 11:26 a.m. Miami Marlin relief pitcher and Long County native Dustin McGowan recently received the 2016 Hutch Award. The award is given by the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center to a Major League player who exemplifies the spirit and courage of the Fred Hutchinson, a former player and manager, who died in 1964 from cancer at age 45. McGowan was a standout player for Long County from 1996-2000. He was a first-round pick by the Toronto Blue Jays, selected 33rd in the 2000 MLB draft. While playing in the minor leagues, his 2004 season was cut short by an injury that required Tommy John surgery on his right elbow. McGowan also discovered he was a diabetic, and began pitching while wearing an insulin pump. Despite the setbacks, Baseball America named him the #1 prospect in the Blue Jays farm system in 2005. That July, McGowan was called up to debut with the Blue Jays. McGowan continued to pitch for Toronto, but also continued to have medical issues, resulting in more surgeries and setbacks. Despite the hardships, McGowan maintained a positive attitude and was productive for Toronto, until he was released in 2015. During the early part of that year, McGowan played briefly for the Los Angeles Dodgers and Philadelphia Phillies, until being signed by the Miami Marlins as a relief pitcher after the season. McGowan finished the 2016 season with a 1-3 record, a 2.82 ERA, having 63 strikeouts in 67 innings of action.

Analyzing Managerial Efficiency in Major League Baseball: A Sabermetric Approach Jebediah C. Clarke A Thesis Submitted to Department of Economics Skidmore College In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement for a B.A. Degree Thesis Advisor: Joerg Bibow May 3rd, 2016 Abstract Modern statistical analysis has allowed for teams to more accurately measure Major League Baseball player performance. However, other than tracing wins there are few ways to track the performance of on-field managers whose strategies, decisions, and expertise fundamentally influence the outcome of each game. I begin this paper by investigating and critiquing prior empirical analyses that have attempted to quantify the effect of managerial skill on team performance. Using Stochastic Frontier Analysis and data from the 2008-2015 MLB seasons, I expand on previous research by calculating managerial efficiency estimates while including control variables that better objectively measure player performance. I find that the least efficient managers achieve winning percentages that are around 80% of what is possible, given their players’ talent level.
