HOST ROCKETS EARN 6-4 VICTORY OVER RAMS

BY JIM SARKISIAN SPECIAL TO THE TRIBUNE AUBURN — The Auburn Rockets faced off against the Northbridge Rams Wednesday,April 15, as pitch- ing and timely hitting were the keys to the game. For the Rockets, senior captain Jeff Croteau (5 IP, 1 ER, 6 strike- outs) took the mound facing off against the Rams’ sophomore pitch- er Evan Mackintosh (5 IP, 3 ER, 7 strikeouts). Both pitchers had control of the game from the beginning, with the score remaining 0-0 after the first two innings. Northbridge came out in the third stringing together a few hits, but Auburn’s Croteau kept his composure, getting two strikeouts in the inning and making the Rams leave the bases loaded. Auburn’s offense started to show some signs of life in the third. With two men on and two outs, senior captain Evan Pluff hit a shot to deep center. The ranging Rams cen- ter fielder lost control of the ball, allowing two Auburn runs to score. “We left quite a few guys on base in the first couple of innings, that’s the difference,” said Rams coach John Demasian. “They got a couple of big hits, we didn’t.” Shawn Kelley photos Northbridge got to Croteau in the Left to right: Northbridge’s Evan Mackintosh delivers a pitch to Auburn during their contest Wednesday, April 15.

With Beach’s speed, he was able to stretch the hit out into a triple. With Beach on third with two outs, junior Brian Sullivan (1-3, one run, 1 RBI) stepped up to the plate and hit connected with a Mackintosh pitch to drive in Beach.

BY THOMAS MATTSON TRIBUNE STAFF WRITER UXBRIDGE — Hank Bosma sits in Hank’s Hideaway watching the Cleveland Indians pound the New York Yankees. It’s the clubhouse for the Edgewood Golf course. Business is slow, because it is raining on a Saturday afternoon. It is a nine-hole course the Bosma fam- ily has run since 1955 on 60 acres off Hartford Avenue West. His son Craig Bosma, 42, pretty much manages the place now that his father is 82 and is taking it a lit- tle easier. But it was Hank Bosma who took over the course and made it avail- able at cut rates to golfers a half cen- tury ago. His son Craig worked 15 years as assistant superintendent at Pleasant Valley Country Club in Sutton and is a first-rate golfer. So Hank Bosma is content to keep the golf course going for his son, who mows the fairways and cuts the greens every day.It is all a matter of keeping things intact and also pro- viding a service for the public. Hank Bosma started out as a dairy farmer, helping his father Gilbert Bosma milk the cows and make deliveries to area customers, including to the big A & P account in Northbridge. He got up at 4:30 in the morning. In 1950, his father died and Hank was the only boy, with four sisters. In 1955, he took over the golf course at the age of 29.
