Gov just said MA Schools are closed for year. W/ that being said, I’m deeply saddened I won’t be able to coach our fine group of seniors for their final season. Seniors have lead by example & set the bar high. Wellesley Baseball is better because of their commitment & heart. 🚂
Seniors leave WHS w/ 58 wins over the last four years including 9 tournament wins, sectional & Eastern Mass 🏆s, state champ runner up, & BSC Carey ‘19 banner. Thank you Henry, Teddy, Justin,Michael, Jacob, Max, Owen, & Warren for your commitment to WHS ⚾️ over the last 4 yrs. 🚂
Massachusetts HS Baseball lost a great one today. Don Fredericks- 3 time state champion and mentor to so many, passed away this morning. Let me say as a beneficiary of playing for him, he made an impact on so many lives well beyond baseball. We’ll miss you Coach!

My dad wasn’t a baseball guru by any means but he enjoyed watching the Phillies on TV, going to the old Vet, and coaching my little league team w/Doc. Sadly he passed in 2009 after a fight with lung cancer. Take a moment to hug your dad & say Happy Fathers Day. Rip Dad.

“In high school,” Maddux said, “I learned that movement was more important than velocity, and I learned that location was more important than velocity, and I learned that the ability to change speeds was more important than velocity.”
Built a ⚾️ schedule that gave WHS a chance to get in the 🎱. Went 9-3 on the road including Ws at Walpole & Xaverian. 7-2 at home. 8-2 in BSC. 13 D1 wins. No matter where we end up we will be ready to play. 🚂
Appreciate all your hard work Coach

Forever grateful to John Brown who gave me the opportunity in 2006 to lead the Raider baseball program. John made coaching in Wellesley a dream come true. He supported the program with incredible facilities, equipment, and resources. John is the best AD in the business. 👊🏻
