The Southampton 10-, 11- and 12-year-old Majors All-Stars needed to defeat East Hampton’s All-Stars at Pantigo Field on Sunday in order to move on to the playoffs of the District 36 Tournament, but East Hampton wound up taking the game in a close 1-0 battle.
It was a tough end to what was a rather successful tournament for the Majors All-Stars, who finished 3-2 in pool play. East Hampton finished with an identical record, but advanced to the playoffs based on head-to-head record. Southampton defeated North Shore American, Hampton Bays and Sag Harbor and lost to East End and East Hampton.
The Majors All-Stars, sponsored by Ted’s East End Market, included Scott Armusewicz III, Luke Bartasi, Nathan Counihan Bishop, Ignatius Fulweiler, Thomas Lavinio, Torin Lysogorski, Samuel Raynor, Augie Schuster, Samuel Telvi, Landry Trantolo, Wesley Warner, Andrew Wetter, Taylor White and Anthony Galante, and were managed by John Venturella who was assisted by Scott Armusewicz and Charlie Schuster.
Southampton also entered an 8-, 9- and 10-year-old Minors All-Stars baseball team, sponsored by Water Mill Building Supply, and for the first time in many years, a 10-, 11- and 12-year-old Majors All-Stars softball team, sponsored by North Sea Hardware. The Minors baseball team had lost all four of its games so far, having played its final game on Wednesday against North Shore National at Downs Family Park in Southampton.
The Minors All-Stars included Cole Collins, Lucas Dimitropoulos, Brendan Doyle, Teddy Fulweiler, Chase Halsey, Lochlan Kenny, Michael Lavinio, Nash Lysogorski, Jack Odom, Luka Pisano, Ryan Sisco, Nico Souhrada and Read Wilutis. The team was managed by Rob Wilutis and he was assisted by Chris Souhrada and Ken Sisco.
Southampton softball All-Stars had a rough go of it in its two games but played a much better game against Sag Harbor in game two. The fact that the league even entered a softball team this year bodes well for numbers in the school program, which didn’t field a varsity team this past spring for the first time in recent memory.
The team roster included Major Bovio, Sophie Escobar, Natalie Glanz, Avery Greene, Alexandra Kontokosta, Isabella O’Leary, Taylor Olsen, Addison Sansone, Josephine Salinetti, Willow Ingram, Tessa Delalio, Isla Butler and Caitlin Zorko. Andrew Sansone managed the team with assistant coaches Jim O’Leary and Dina Kontokosta.
