Mike Riemer CT

Mike played on the same TCB team as my son and the two remain good friends. Spoke with Mike's mom, Ellen, a few weeks ago, and at that time he hadn't made a decision, yet.

I've watched Mike pitch, hit (including putting the ball out of the park during a game at Fairfield), play short and outfield. I've seen how he acts during practices and games, how he conducts himself on the road, and because my son and I spent more than one weekend as guests in the Riemer home, I've gotten to observe Mike's behaviour away from the field. For those who don't know Mike, I want you to know that he is not only a fine athlete, but also a fine young man with exemplary character. I am by no means an expert, but I truly believe that Mike will be an asset wherever he plays.

From a few scouts down south ( Rollins College ) , Mike in his second pre season game in Vero Beach, Florida was 84-87 off the mound, striking out 7 of the first 9 batters of an aggressive New Jersey team.

His status remains uncommitted, but I'm still looking for more information if theres any out there.

According to Mike's mom, he has not made a decision, yet, but he has joined the Marine Corps Reserve as a way to earn money to defray college expenses, and he'll report to boot camp on June 2nd.
