Sophomore Casey Fife warms up on the turf field with the EMU Club Sports baseball team, which is no longer able to use the Hayward
Fieldhouse for its batting practice.
Baseball: Club team searches for solution
Continued from page 1
some sort of compromise.
“We obviously want to keep base
ball alive on this campus,” Caputo
said. “We are the last thread of base
ball on this campus.”
Baseball was the first team sport
recognized by the University. The
first game was played in 1877, and
the game has had a presence on cam
pus since then. In 1981, funding for
varsity baseball was cut by the Ath
letics Department. Club Sports
absorbed the team and it became
funded by student incidental fees and
player dues.
The team has been a contender for
national titles in recent years, includ
ing the National Club Baseball World
Series last year.
“We went to nationals last year,
and want to maintain that caliber of
play,” Caputo said.
Head coach Brad Ficek said the
weather has impacted the quality of
practices, which take place on the
turf fields next to the Student Recre
ation Center. Because the team has
no field and no indoor facilities, the
team is at a double disadvantage,
Ficek said.
Caputo said he isn’t trying to start a
war with anyone, he just wants to con
tinue playing baseball at a high level.
“If we could work something out,
it would be better than nothing,”
Caputo said.
