Well, then he probably catches Jon Menke too. Jon takes lessons from Sakis as well. Jon threw on the varsity this spring, getting two no decisions and beating Loyola. He threw legion against the Wilmette Wave and Paul Duncan last week, losing 3-1. Today he pitched for the HP Colt team and beat New Trier, going 5 innings and giving up two runs as HP defeated New Trier 10-4 to move into the championship game against either Lake Forest or Niles Braves Red, depending upon who won this afternoon. Your son is a great kid and a heck of a catcher. He caught a kid named Tomm Catomer this winter, when I had Jon give up a half lesson so Sakis could look at Tommy. Catomer throws for South Mountain in AZ and hits 93. Your son caught him with ease! Jon and AJ Nathan played both varsity and Soph this spring while Anthony Kopp played just varisty.

Its always nice when you can say you beat New Trier. A great back and forth game with some WEBGEMS.

NT CF Hopson had a great Willy Mays type running back to HP catch with a couple guys on in the 4th or 5th to save some runs and then had one of the better catches that I have ever seen from a HS CF (picture Jim Edmonds running straight back and going full extension to rob the guy right at the track). This was the leadoff hitter of the bottom of 7 in a 6-6 tie game mind you!!!! That would be a great video.

Lane pulls it out and will play @ Buffalo Grove 4pm on Tuesday.
