The Lincoln Babe Ruth baseball team completed a successful season marking victories against Brunswick, Bath and Mt. Ararat teams.
Adam Harkins, Lincoln coach said, “Our kids were a formidable group against much larger Brunswick, Topsham and Bath teams. We were lucky enough to have a solid roster of 11-13 kids for all 14 games and had experience and depth at all positions.”
The talented and young team consisted of players from Boothbay, Wiscasset and Alna. The team finished a strong season with a winning season 7-6-1 and all of the players will be returning next year.
Harkins said, “Not only were we playing bigger towns but also we were playing older kids. The oldest player we had turned 15 during the season, most of the kids being 14 and 13 year olds on our team. It was a fantastic group of kids and parents, I had the good fortune to have been part of a great summer baseball season with them all.”
Patrick Sanborn, Lincoln coach said, “Thank you to all the players and parents from this year and last year. As a coach you have all been amazing for your combined dedication, support and perseverance. It takes all of you to make this happen and I am grateful.”
The coaching staff for the Lincoln Babe Ruth Team was Adam Harkins, Patrick Sanborn, Steve Markowitz, John Splaine and Jason Putnam. The league sponsors were Cromwell Coastal Properties, Tobin Farms Velvet Antler from Alna, 1st National Bank, Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens and Ames True Value Hardware.
