URSULINE BASEBALL COACH’S CORNER (EP 3) WITH PAUL KEMPE

YOUNGSTOWN OH- The Ursuline Fighting Irish have been a team that has one thriller of a roller coaster season. Having more high spots than low, Ursuline has so far compiled a 15-8 record to this point of the season.  Including big wins over Division 1 opponents, hitting tanks over the wall, and so many highlights through the pitching staff.

Having five different pitchers have a season Earned Run Average (ERA) under 3.  Being an Ursuline graduate made it easier for Head Coach Paul Kempe to step in and fill the role of pushing tradition, character, and respect of the game. All foundations that have built Ursuline’s program. Beating Waterloo in The Sectional FInal by a score of 8-4, has put The Irish just two wins away from capturing a district crown.

Next on the docket? A high quality Middlefield Cardinal team with a 12-8 record on the year. Catch this edition of Coaches Corner, where Anthony and Ty catch up with Coach Kempe on the season, all while looking ahead at tournament aspirations. Exclusively on YSN!  You can also catch #4 Ursuline as they take on #6 Cardinal at beautiful Bob Cene Park on Monday, May 23rd.
