Rosano, Genereux Earn Spots On 2013 MASCAC Baseball All-Conference Team
Buzzards Bay, Mass. -- Massachusetts Maritime sophomore shortstop Bobby Rosano and senior utility player Tyler Genereux have each earned spots on the 2013 Massachusetts State Collegiate Athletic Conference Baseball all-conference team that was released earlier this afternoon.
Rosano, a native of North Reading, Mass. and a graduate of North Reading High School, earned first-team all-conference accolades, as he currently ranks second in the league with a .398 batting average that includes 39 hits, five doubles, four triples and 20 RBI. Rosano also leads the Buccaneers with 27 runs scored and 12 stolen bases while posting a .531 slugging percentage and a conference-best .492 on-base percentage. Rosano was named as the MASCAC Co-Player of the Week on April 14th after rapping out six hits in a doubleheader sweep at Fitchburg State, and he has also recorded a team-best 60 assists in the field.
Genereux, a native of Duxbury, Mass. and a graduate of Duxbury High School, has proved to be versatile at second base, third base and on the mound this season for Massachusetts Maritime, as he earned second-team all-conference honors. Genereux is batting at a .357 clip that includes 35 hits, a pair of homers, seven doubles and 20 RBI, and he has recorded a .510 slugging percentage to go with a .382 on-base percentage. Genereux has struck out 11 in 18 innings of both starting and relief work as well for the Buccaneers this spring, notching a 1-0 victory over Rivier on March 17th that saw him scatter three hits over five innings of work.
Massachusetts Maritime has posted 11 overall victories this spring under 41-year Head Coach Bob Corradi, as the Buccaneers have qualified for the MASCAC Championships for the first time in school history as the sixth seed. Corradi’s crew will open post-season play Thursday afternoon by heading to Alumni Field in Westfield, Mass. to take on third-seeded Westfield State in a first round single elimination contest that begins at 3:00 p.m. EDT.
