J-Hawks, Saints split a family affair

Mon - 10 Jun Written by Don Taylor

It was Ken Charipar Memorial Night at Xavier for the Mississippi Valley Conference doubleheader between Jefferson and the Saints Monday evening.

The event had special meaning for both baseball clubs.

One of Charipar’s grandsons, Corbin Woods, plays shortstop for Xavier. Another grandson, Kyle Rodenkirk, is the head coach for Jefferson.

In addition, a number of players from both teams played youth baseball for the late Ken Charipar and the results Monday at Ken Charipar Field were appropriate enough.

The J-Hawks and Saints split the twinbill. Jefferson won the first game, 10-3, and Xavier took the nightcap, 14-4, in six innings.

Wash pitchers handcuff J-Hawks

Fri - 31 May Written by Mike Condon

Tony Lombardi is trying to keep it simple.

His Washington Warriors baseball team has starters ranging from an eighth-grader (his son Rocky) to a possible soon-to-be professional baseball player (A.J. Puk) and several others in-between.

“I am really proud of these kids, they have come a long way,” Lombardi said after his team’s sweep of Cedar Rapids Jefferson on Friday night at Jefferson. “Our goal is to come out here and be the kind of team you have to beat. That was not our moniker a year ago.”

Lombardi has liked what he has seen so far. Friday’s 7-1 and 6-3 wins over the J-Hawks have Washington off to a 5-1 start.
