Page 16 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – Friday, May 17, 2019 Tide baseball team blasts Somerville to begin new week with renewed energy Senior Evan Mallard pitched one inning of relief in the Crimson Tide’s win over Somerville, 11-5. By Joe Mitchell T he Everett Crimson Tide baseball team (4-7 overall, 3-6 in the Northeastern Conference) began a new week with renewed hope after beating up Somerville on Monday, May 13, to the tune of 11-5. Pitcher Jared Corbett picked up his first win of the season after going five strong innings, according to Coach Joe Lento. Michael Sullivan, Servio Santana and ReiSenior captain Jonathan Fitzgerald connects for a hit during the Crimson Tide’s game against Somerville. mond Romero led the charge offensively for the Tide, scoring seven of the team’s 11 runs. Sullivan came through with a clutch two-run single in the home half of the sixth inning to extend the lead with a couple of very valuable insurance runs. The win over Somerville was critical after the Everett boys lost to Lynn Classical to close out last week, 14-2. The Tide was supposed to play Peabody on Tuesday, May 14, but that game was postponed because of the never-ending Senior Jared Corbett, starting pitcher in the Crimson Tide’s win over Somerville, 11-5 rain that the region has been enduring throughout the past three weeks or so. With that in mind, there are still plenty of games left on the regular season schedule to possibly clinch a postseason berth. The game against the Tanners will be made up on May 24. “In order for us to reach our goal of making the state tournament, we are going to need key contributions from all of our guys down the home stretch,” said Lento. “We finish the season with nine games in Senior Michael Sullivan closed the game in the Crimson Tide’s victory over the Highlanders of Somerville.

Everett resident recognized by Assumption College for exemplary service and leadership W ORCESTER – Gemaers Gee Dorvil of Everett was recently honored with the prestigious Crown and Shield Award from Assumption College. The award recognizes students who have distinguished themselves throughout their tenure at the College in the areas of leadership and community service. Award recipients have protected (shield) and furthered (crown) the interests of the student body and Assumption as a whole. “The very essence of leadership is the recognition that one has gifts and talents that can bring to life a vision that can be transformative for individuals, an institution or society,” said Assumption College President Dr. Francesco C. Cesareo. “That transformation results from the ability of a leader to inspire, to help people dream of possibilities not yet imagined. Remember that leadership is not about the accumulation of power and wealth or selfish aggrandizement. Rather, it is principally meant for the building up of society by being the advocates, supporters and defenders of the weak and the little ones against all who oppress them.” Crown and Shield recipients are nominated by faculty, staff and administration for their exemplary service and leadership. Dorvil graduated with a major in Mathematics and minors in Computer Science and Physics. Dorvil’s involvement at Assumption varied; he was an African, Latino/Hispanic, Asian and Native American (ALANA) Network member for all four years, starting as a general member, then executive board Secretary, and finishing up as the ALANA President this past year. Dorvil served as the head Resident Assistant (RA) for the past three years, where he excelled in planning and implementing the Foundation Friday training sessions for his fellow RAs. Dorvil was also a member of Positively Achieving Leadership by Men in Society for the past three years. Dorvil is most proud of the opportunity he had to create a family for students of color on campus, and encourage them to do things they hadn’t thought possible. A nominator said that Dorvil “exemplifies everything it means to be a student leader. He is a person of character, a role model for younger students, and carries himself in a mature, professional manner no matter what he is doing. He is a true asset to the College because of his dedication to leadership and service.” After graduation Dorvil will seek employment in a software engineering position and then he plans to pursue his master's degree in a year. “The challenge for you as you prepare to leave Assumption College and enter the next phase in your life is to continue to nurture the qualities of leadership that you have cultivated here,” said Cesareo. “As leaders formed within the Assumptionist tradition, our world needs you to bring it hope by making society a better place, thereby bringing about the kingdom of God. In this way you will be a gift to others.” Everett resident graduates Campbellsville University C AMPBELLSVILLE, Ky–Satya Sai Prasanna Viswanath Kalidasu of Everett recently graduated with Master of Science degree in Information Technology Management from Campbellsville University.
