From Ritchie Kirkum:
Chris Manes of Oakfield, last years MVP and 4 year varsity player at Oakfeild-Alabama recently committed to Hilbert College in Hamburg NY to further his education and play Baseball for Coach Jim Pernick and the Hawks. “We are so excited to have Chris. He is a bull dog and will be in the starting rotation as a Freshman. I have been looking for a strong lefty and now I got one. The assistant coaches and team has already met Chris and everyone is so happy to have him aboard. His 4 years experience on varsity and numerous travel teams gives him such an edge. He has played for both excellent high school and travel coaches. “
