CUNYAC President Robert Coleman, CCNY CUNYAC Vice-President Harold Merritt, Staten Island Baseball Commissioner Harold Merritt, Staten Island Tournament Preview Despite holding the number one seed for the last two seasons, the College of Event Hosts - CSI Staff Staten Island (5-1 CUNYAC, Regular Season Champions) have fell short in the Jason Fein, Associate Athletic Director CUNYAC Tournament. Looking for the school’s ninth title (and first since 2000), Brian Gasper, Facility Manger head coach Bill Cali will look to the mound to sophomore righty Nick Secchini Dave Pizzuto, Assistant SID and a balanced lineup, including junior centerfielder Eric Zinke and infielders Eddie Buttle, Field Manager Andrew Fraschilla, Michael Guarneri and Tom Wohlfit. John Jay College (4-2 Adam Lazatin & J. L. Berti, Operations CUNYAC), the 2002 CUNYAC Tournament Champs are playing well under second year skipper Dan Palumbo. The Bloodhounds are led by last year’s PA Announcer Player of the Year, sophomore OF Miguel Jaquez and CUNYAC Tournament Dave Pizzuto, Assistant SID MVP outfielder Mike Ramirez. Also on the rise is Lehman College (3-3 CUNYAC). Head coach Kiko Reyes boasts the best lineup in the league with hitters like Jason Whitfield, Ayolio Martinez, Carlos Ramirez, Jason Castillo and Johary Get all the results Burgos. After winning the CUNYAC title two seasons ago, Baruch College (0-6 from this championship & more at: CUNYAC) has struggled, but with two wins, the Bearcats can also make a run www.cuny.edu/sports at the CUNY Championship! 2003 CUNYAC BASEBALL CHAMPIONSHIP @ the College of Staten Island
