Clippers Steal Their Way To Cape Ann League (CAL) Championship
May 23, 2008
Newburyport got off to a slow start early in the season (1-4), but managed to turn it around and finished strong with a 10-3 CAL record. Overall they are 12-7 with one game remaining to be played on Sunday against Maimonides.
This year’s team lacked the big bats and the offensive power of past Clipper teams, but they made up for it with team speed, hustle and the ability to successfully steal bases. With one game remaining to play, Newburyport already has a school record 65 stolen bases.
The team speed should serve Newburyport well in the MIAA Division 3 Tournament.
