Jake Boyle
Baseball
by Jessica Tucci
associate editor
Freshman Jake Boyle is on fire
this year. He is impacting every
pivotal point possible for the
Behrend men’s baseball team. He
leads the team in home runs with
eight, RBl’s with 46, and runs
scored with 43. In addition, Boyle
broke the Behrend baseball
homerun record this year with his
eight.
His eighth homerun occurred
during the AMCC tournament, but
the story doesn’t stop there. It was
the ninth inning with two out and
no one on base. The next batter
had a hit, and the next batter was
walked. Then Boyle came to bat.
The count, was at one and one when
Boyle came through for the team
and smashed the record breaking
homer.
Coach Benim is ecstatic with
Boyle. “Jake is an excellent
student-athlete,” said Benim. “He
is having an incredible year. At
times, he has absolutely carried our
team with his hitting.”
The Beacon would like to thank the
Athletic’s Department for all their
help throughout the 1998-99 season.
A special thanks goes to Sports Information Director Paul Benim who prov ided us with
box scores, press releases and an Athlete of the Week on a weekly basis. We greatly
appreciate all of your help.
