1 PORTER BASEBALL PORTERS GR1ND TO THE FINISH CONFERENCE CHAMPIONS, LONGEST GAME IN TEAM HISTORY AMONG HIGHLIGHTS The above was the theme for the 2014 for the Porters. As it turned out that is exactly what the team had to do throughout this roller coaster of a season that ended with the Porters being defeated by Providence by a score of 4-2 in the Lockport Regional. The Porters ended with an over-all record of that saw them play 17 games decided by 2 or less runs. Their record in those games was 7-10 and 6 of those losses were by 1 run. Offense (.241 BA) was hard to come by at times causing the Porters to have to grind out runs. Their pitching (ERA 1.66) and defense (.941 %) carried the Porters throughout the season. Of their 26 opponents 12 were seeded 1 /2 in their sectional, 8 were ranked in the top 25 and 3 in the top 5 showing the tough schedule that is always a hallmark of Porter baseball. Thru it all the team played hard, with enthusiasm and showed their Special Events of Note character. It was an all around outstanding TEAM effort by everyone. Two on the field highlights stand out in particular. The Porters won the SWSC Blue Conference title in dramatic fashion with a 12-2 record. Heading into the last 2 games with L-Way East, the Porters knew that they had to win both games to get at least a share of the title. With typical hard work and effort, the Porters defeated the Griffins in both games. That, coupled with a Sandburg loss, earned the Porters their 4 th consecutive conference title and 29 th in program history. 5 Porters earned All SWSC honors; Mike Formella, Rusty Hoh, Noah Masa, Tyler Hair and Lorenzo Blaze-kovich. A part of this conference accomplishment was the 2 nd highlight of the season. The Porters were heading into the conference showdown with undefeated Sandburg.

3 Coaches Corner: Leadership? Porters Take It to the Classroom BAM! POW! BAM & POW!! ALLLLLLL DAY!!! These were some of the sounds that may have been heard from the Porters dugout this season. As you can imagine, the 2014 Lockport Porters were a group made up of a lot of different personalities. Finding a way to balance all of their energy and enthusiasm for the game of baseball with their skill set would be the key to a successful season, but was no easy task for the coaching staff. Always looking to improve the baseball program, Coach Satunas presented me with the opportunity to develop a leadership curriculum that would build upon the Leadership Council we started last season on the varsity level. We wanted to continue to grow our senior leaders, but at the same time wanted to include the lower levels so that they could begin to develop these important characteristics early and continue to build on them throughout their tenure in the program. Six players per level were chosen by their coaches and teammates to represent their team. All players were then assigned to represent one of the PORTERS core values: Pride, Opportunity, Respect, Teamwork, Enthusiasm, Reliable, Self-Reliable. The Leadership Council would meet every Friday morning in my classroom and to reward them for waking up early, I would treat them to donuts, chocolate milk, and orange juice (I think this is the only reason they continued to come). Each week, one of the teams would present a selected chapter of Brian Cain s book on leadership. The kids incorporated engaging video clips, quotes, discussions, and one freshman even quizzed the council on their knowledge of history! After the kids would present, I would lead them through some of the leadership curriculum I had developed. I really wanted to focus on teaching our players the importance of building confidence in themselves as leaders on the baseball field, in the classroom, and most importantly, later on in their lives after baseball. Studies have classified multiple styles of leadership ranging from those that lead by their words all the way to the silent leaders who lead by example. Many of the freshmen did not mutter a word the first couple of weeks, but by the end some of them were more open than the seniors! It was truly remarkable to watch these 18 young men grow up over the seven weeks we met. I made it a point the first meeting with only the seniors that this was their chance to put their stamp on the 2014 Leadership Council and help shape their future Porter brothers in years to come. I am big on visuals and motivational/inspirational quotes so I used a variety of these sources to lead our meetings. One of the quotes that has really stuck with me in my five years of coaching high school football and baseball is: Before you are a leader, success is all about growing yourself. When you become a leader, success is all about growing others (Jack Welch). I think we now have 18 young men who will be better leaders in baseball and in the community to help teach their fellow teammates and classmates some of the hard work and pride associated with the Lockport Baseball Program. I would like to personally thank Coach Satunas for allowing me to develop and run the Leader- ship Council; I enjoyed growing closer to the coaches and players involved and will continue to keep learning and becoming a better leader myself. A BIG THANK YOU goes to the senior leaders: Mike Formella, Nick Kaleel, Noah Masa, Ryan Dalton, Avery Lochow, and Jake Stanton. You guys definitely created a solid foundation for your LEGACY!

He s going to miss just being around the guys because of that close bond. Being a Porter helped me not only become a better player but a better person.

Nick Kaleel will be joining teammate Chris Grazioli and head north to Minnesota to attend St. Mary s U. Nick struggled with health issues throughout the past two seasons but always remained an important part of the Porters. Limited to 7 games and 13 AB, Nick batted.154 and played 3B.

11 Summer Time to Rebuild and REload Well, summer is finally here! Thinking back to this winter and the cold temps that continued into early May some thought it would never get here. But now that is has, the Porters will begin taking steps to improve upon this past season. The Porters will field 2 teams this summer. The varsity is holding tryouts the week of June 2 nd. Their schedule will include 3 tournaments including the annual Battle of Omaha 19U Tournament that is held during the College World Series. The Porters will be facing teams from Minnesota, Colorado, Montana, Oklahoma, South Dakota and Maryland among others. Most teams consist of graduated high school players and college players. Lockport will also host two tourn- Finish of 2014 Season (cont d from page 1) stood at 8-2 two games behind the Eagles. A win was a must if the Porters had any hope of repeating their title and win they did. It was the way they did it that was impressive and historic. In the longest game in Porter baseball history the Porters defeated the Eagles 2-1 in 16 innings that spanned two days because of darkness after 11 innings on day one. It was truly inspiring to see the effort of the whole Porter team but in particular pitchers Mike Formella and Cole Bellair who combined to pitch 14 innings. Formella started the game, went 6.1 innings and then came back 2 days later when the game resumed to pitch another 5 to earn the win striking out 12. Bellair came into the game in the 7 th and pitched 2.2 innings and struck out 8. This started a late season run for the Porters who finished 7-1 in their last 8 games. Once again the Porters character was on display off the field as well. In keeping with the program philosophy of giving aments later in the summer. Candidates will include juniors from the spring varsity, sophomore and freshman teams. Evaluations will be made by the summer coaching staff and rosters will be posted on the team website (porterbaseball.org). Candidates from the Maroon and White freshman spring teams will also go through 3 days of tryouts as well and will compete in the Summer JV League. This league consists of over 20 schools and will conclude with a season ending tournament. The goal of our summer program is to evaluate players for next spring and provide the best competition possible. back to the community, the Porters hosted their annual Strikeout Cancer day of baseball. This year the Porters raised $9,178 for pediatric cancer research. They also honored the armed forces past and present with a Military Appreciation day with special ceremonies before the game. Also a tradition is recognizing the accomplishments of past Porter teams. This year they honored teams from 1963 and Also, the Porters participated in St. Baldrick activities in March that helped raise funds for and awareness of child-hood cancer. Another highlight for the Porters is that once again 12 players are moving on to college to continue their baseball careers at the next level. Also, in 2014, head coach Andy Satunas reached an important mark in his 4 yr. career by winning his 100 th game and 4 th consecutive SWSC conference championship. Flink Field Update 2014 Never in recent memory has the weather had an effect on the early part of the baseball schedule as did The severe winter, late thaw and spring arrival caused all sorts of complications at Flink Field. However, the Porters played a full 35 game schedule due in large part to the efforts of Mark Dulkowski and his great crew that worked many hours to get the field playable. The coaches and players greatly appreciate the time and commitment of the maintenance staff and would like to extend a giant thank you to these guys!!! We couldn t have done it without you. NOTES: The infield grass has especially been in great shape and is by far the best infield we played on all season long.

Both were All-State players for the Porters and both were instrumental in leading the Porters during their historic 63 season. That team was the first Porter team to reach the state tournament. Those 63 Porters traveled a tough road to get to the Peoria IHSA State Tournament as they won the South Suburban Conference, the Lockport District, Reavis Regional and Morton Sectional. They finished off Mound City in a 5 inning game at the state tournament but then lost to Granite City and finished Chuck and Pete attended Alumni Day ceremonies on Saturday May 17 th as the 2014 Porters dedicated and presented them with a sign (above left) that is on the left field wall with other signs recognizing Porter state tournament teams. The 63 Porters included Vince Affrunti, Jerry Anderson, Pat Bannon, Dave Bier, Chuck Bozue, Chuck Brieden, Wilbur Clark, Andy Dystrup, Larry Edsall, Bob Keefer, Herb Kinder, Jim Kraft, Mike Murawski, Fred Pederson, Jim Pieper, Jim Posetto, Ray Ryan, Dave Sims, Norman Thomas and Wayne Traylor. Sharing that day and also being recognized was the 1984 Porters led by head coach Clyde Odle. Joining Coach Odle were former players Bill Pomatto, Dave Jennings, Steve Lotz, Bruce Rigoni, Bob Mondrella and John Boland. They too were given a sign (above right) at home plate ceremonies as a summary of their tremendous state tournament season was read to the crowd. The 84 Porters finished 32-5 and won the SICA West Conference title as well as the Lockport Regional and Hinsdale South Sectional earning them Elite Eight status in the Class AA IHSA State Tournament. 84 Porters included asst. coach Jim Hall, Ron Coomer, Mike Curtin, Mark Feigl, Rich Gardner, Tim Haas, Chris Kopacz, Tim Laken, Ken Laczynski, Chris Penteris, Ken Pesavento, Tim Popovich, Pat Sexton, Jack Surin, Mark Wessel, Brad Whalen and Dave Wrona. The special Alumni game is a tradition the current Porters began a few years ago when we rededicated OF signs for past Porters Tom and Bill Haller, Ron Coomer, Jim Hall and Clyde Odle. It is our way of saying to past Porters that you are not forgotten and that your days as members of the Porter baseball family are valued by those who wear the uniform today. It is the hope of the Porter Baseball family that this tradition will continue and that we are able to welcome many of those from the past to Flink Field in the future. In fact next year we will be celebrating the 10 th anniversary of the 2005 State Championship Porters and will be honoring them at our annual Alumni Night game late in May, 2015 (date TBA). GO PORTERS!! 12
13 On a practice day this season, some of the coaches were talking amongst themselves and the subject of what our players know and don t know about Porter baseball history came up. The freshman coach said that his players were unaware of things from the 80 s and 90 s let alone events from past decades going back to the early 1900 s. Things like who Ed Flink was. One player didn t even know who Ron Coomer was! (Sorry Ron) On another day a varsity coach was talking with a player in the OF during BP and was telling him about the history of Flink Field and some of the historic events that have occurred there. I didn t know that was heard over and over. Well, we have decided to try and do something about that. The Porter baseball program is in the process of constructing an unofficial history of our baseball program and of baseball in the Lockport community as well. Our community is rich in baseball tradition and LTHS has, is and always will be a big part of that. We feel that all players coming into our program should know about it. An early cover page of this short history is to the left. We hope to complete it over the summer so that we can send a PDF copy to all of our players and their families next season. It will also be offered to all on our list as well. The quality of a person s life is in direct proportion of their commitment to excellence, regardless of their chosen field of endeavor Porter Baseball Coach Andy Satunas (asatunas@lths.org) Go Porters!
