Mike Marron Returns as Field Manager, for the 2008 Pittsfield Dukes
It's only March, but Mike Marron said he can't wait to return to Wahconah Park this summer. Marron will begin his second season as manager of the NECBL's Pittsfield Dukes in June.
"With the momentum we took in the last half of last summer, I feel excited about the direction of the team and the organization," Marron said. "There's a lot of potential to make a lot of good things happen this summer."
"I'm excited about the group I have" coming this summer, he said. "We're getting players from some very strong programs. That's going to help us right off the bat."
Marron is in his third season as an assistant coach at the University of Massachusetts-Lowell. He's a former All-Patriot League catcher at Holy Cross.
"He's a really good role model for the players and the organization," Dukes president Dan Duquette said when announcing Marron's return. "He is a very dedicated baseball man. I liked the way he represented the team and dealt with the players. We're happy he's coming back."
