Sammy Michel moved through Colgan’s vaunted lineup with ease. In his varsity pitching debut as a Battlefield High School freshman, the left-hander nearly retired the side during the first inning. Brandon Cassedy (Christopher Newport) flied out then Evan Blanchard (George Mason) grounded out. After Brett Renfrow (Virginia Tech) reached base on an error, teammate Ryan Kennedy (Virginia Tech) grounded out to end the inning. Four batters. Three outs. No problem.

The Bobcats’ roster is composed of all underclassmen, a first in Burkhart’s 14th season at the helm. Another first is that Battlefield will have six freshmen, the most Burkhart has ever kept on varsity. Coming into this season, only four freshmen total had ever made varsity for the Bobcats.

Before every Patriot basketball game, Mike Keenan told his son, Ryan, the same thing: Play hard. If that meant diving on the floor for a loose ball, do it. If that meant taking a charge, do it. If it meant making that one extra pass to a teammate that leads to a basket, do it. Sure, Mike loved to see Ryan score points. What father wouldn’t? But if Mike taught Ryan anything in sports or even life, it was always to do what’s best for the team.
