TCA: What’s your role on the team?
Alvarez: Assistant Coach for Varsity Baseball
TCA: How do you feel about this upcoming season ?
Alvarez: I’m actually excited because you know we just got the new field , we haven’t got a chance to play on it cause last year they were redoing it so I’m excited about the upcoming season with the new team you know.
TCA: Do you feel like the new field has brought an impact , if so explain why?
Alvarez: Yes, because us having the field in the campus it allows us to practice a lot more whenever we want instead of having to travel and running across other people that first come first serve or people having the city permits that wouldn’t allow us to practice as much as we can since but with the field on campus it’s a huge advantage.
TCA: What’s your position on the team?
Ferreiras: I play pitcher on the baseball team
TCA: So first off are you confident about this upcoming season?
Ferreiras: I feel very confident, I feel like we are going to make a great team this year, especially with the field. We are going to be able to most likely play very far in the season and make it very far in the playoffs potentially play in the Yankee Stadium. I feel like with the squad that we got there are a lot of young guys that have a lot of talent so yes I feel very confident this season.
TCA: As one of G-Dubs athletes, is it difficult to manage sports and other important activities ?
Ferreiras: Yes, yes its very difficult, especially with me because I have to take care of the baseball team as one of the captains and do a lot of work and taking care of what I do outside of school while doing the things inside of school. It’s very difficult to time manage and I try to do it at my best time so things could work out.
