Eastern Amateur Circuit Names Top Skipper Saturday, September 24th , 2016 Providence manager Alex Rafuse was selected as the 2016 Eastern Amateur Circuit Manager of the Year today. He was somewhat of a dark horse next to some of the more flashy managers up for the award. Rafuse, who prefers that everyone call him "Cap" or "Skip," tries to shy away from the limelight in a media-driven world. "It's really unfair to the guys that busted their humps all year long to put all the focus on me now. They showed up early, put in extra time in the cage, worked on their fielding, consulted with our coaching staff and really made 2016 a highlight in my career." In fairness to this year's Manager of the Year, Rafuse certainly played an important part in the Grays success as he guided them to a first place finish in the Eastern Amateur Circuit and a 78-66 record. |
