BOCA RATON, FL -
Nearly 100 wins have come to the nationally ranked baseball team over the past two seasons, however, head coach Kevin Cooney has planned a weekend, October 27-29, to celebrate the program's first 20 years and to celebrate the people who made the teams' successes possible.
The weekend will begin by honoring alumni. Coach Cooney has polled FAU's coaches, both past and present, to compile an All-FAU 20 year team. Two players have been selected at every position, six pitchers and two utility players will comprise the team. Alumni will return to campus, Saturday, for a noon match-up versus the 2001 hopefuls. A picnic will follow the alumni game. Everyone will be invited back to watch an intrasquad game, Sunday, and will be encouraged to match their skills on the golf course.
