The 7U team was led by Manager Christian Fulmino and coaches Rick Feltre, Dave Gubitosa, Sanjay Ibrahim, Marko Miladinov and Sam Rozycki.
The team consisted of the following players Ollie Eschenroeder; Michael Feltre; Vincent Fulmino; Joseph Gubitosa; Jacob Ibrahim; Kevin Karatz; John Miladinov; Leo Murray; Niam Nagabhushana; Connor Rozycki; Jack Suarez; and Alexander Wheeler.
Following a proclamation reading from Hillsborough Township Mayor Frank DelCore to honor the team, he said that the team displayed notable qualities in their character beyond their winning season.
“The Hillsborough Township Committee commends the Hillsborough Baseball League 7U Team, the coaches and parents, not only for their successful season but for their hard work, dedication and commitment to the sport and to those principles of good sportsmanship, teamwork and academic achievement which the organization endorses,” DelCore said.
