Jaspers set for MAAC Championships:
The Manhattan College baseball team is scheduled to meet Rider University this afternoon as it opens defense of the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) Championship.
The top-seeded Jaspers (29-24, 18-6 MAAC) and fourth-seeded Broncs (21-32, 13-11) are set to square off at Joe Bruno Stadium in Troy at 3 p.m.
Joe Rock of Carmel, a junior outfielder, is batting .286 with 13 RBI in 35 games for the Jaspers, while freshman right-hander Mike Scarinci of Nanuet is pitching to a 5.12 ERA with a 5-4 record. The Pearl River alum has an outstanding 3-to-1 strikeout-to-walk ratio with 36 Ks and 12 bases on balls.
Senior right-hander Mike Giordano of Bedford is 2-4 with a crisp 3.69 ERA in eight starts. The Fox Lane grad also has shown sharp control, with 25 strikeouts and 10 walks.

The Jaspers will face either No. 2 Canisius or No. 3 Fairfield on day two of the double-elimination tournament.
