April 1st and the start of the 2019 Spring Season will be here before you know it, and we will be out and about providing our second-to-none boots-on-the-ground scouting to the Garden State. To power us Northeasterners through the despair of the long winter months, we will be highlighting teams and players of note for this coming season

Today we continue with Bergen Tech.

OUTLOOK
Coach Naccara expects his squad to compete for the Big North Liberty Division title and the North 1 Group 4 Playoffs. The Knights made the Bergen County Tournament in 2018 for the 1st time in 50 years and are destined to repeat on the backs of workhorse Tyler Cirone (RHP, NJIT commit) and middle of the order bat Jordan Rivera. "Our starting pitching will need to carry us throughout the season as we look to replace some of our graduating offensive leaders. Defensively we must make the routine play and not give away additional outs" -Coach Naccara
