Freemansburg starting to warm up

Freemansburg may be off to a slow start in NORCO play, but don't let their 1-4 record fool you.

Head coach Chris Medei is used to this sort of thing, as starting off slow in the summer has been the norm in legion play during his tenure.

"I'm not really worried at all about where we are right now," said Medei. "This is how it starts every year. You have new kids, different systems. It usually takes four or five games for us to play at the level we're capable of and for me to find out what we have."

After an 0-3 start, Freemansburg registered its first win of the season on June 5 following an 8-3 victory over Northampton. It may be a sign of better things to come down the road as the team gels together.

Led by Freedom players Dan Corvino (SS), TJ Czerwinski (2B), Zach Gagnon (P) and Dan Knerr (C), Medei has plenty of returning players. Also back is Bethlehem Catholic's Ryan Kokolus (P).

"We should be able to make a run this year," Medei said. "We have enough pitching to do it. We always want to shoot for a championship, but our primary goal is to make the playoffs."
