Pine Plains Bombers visit spring training in Florida

PINE PLAINS —  The Pine Plains Bombers varsity baseball team is back from a spring trip to Baseball City in Tampa, Florida, and is ready to make a great season.

The Stissing High School members, in the ninth through 12th grades, have just started the 2023 season. If their spring break trip was any kind of an omen, it was a good one, because all 17 young men enjoyed visiting Baseball City, playing scrimmages against other baseball teams from up and down the East Coast.

They also got to watch some college baseball, and they thoroughly enjoyed all that their beach resort had to offer.

Coach Steve Huber reported that they played well and hard, had some fun times, and were very grateful to the donors, all local businesses and folks, over 100 of them, who made the trip cost-free for them.

As of Tuesday, April 17, the team stands at 2-2.

The trip was paid for by local sponsors.
