Team of the Week :: Carthage College Men’s Volleyball

May 7th, 2012

This is the first installment of our new Team of the Week Feature.  Each week we will be featuring a new team, highlighting their accomplishments, telling stories of great success, sharing a touching story about an athlete, or showing off some cool uniforms!

The first team to be featured is the Men’s Volleyball Team from Carthage College in Kenosha, WI.  The Red Men recently completed their season by finishing 2nd in the very first NCAA Division III Men’s Volleyball National Championship.  The team was led by All-Tournament Team selections Randy Hansen and Connor Wexter.  The weekend also capped the 4 year careers of 5 seniors for the Red Men who went from an 8-25 season as Freshmen to a 29-6 Senior Season which included the 2nd Place finish along with two 3rd Place finishes.  These 5 men were Tyler Frings, Randy Hansen, John Condon, Mike Bynon, and Matt Yanz.

The Red Men are led by LJ Marx who is a touching story himself.  The year before these seniors stepped on campus, Marx had to step away from coaching after his 9 month old daughter Madison was diagnosed with rhabdomyosarcoma, a soft tissue cancer.  Five years later, Madison is doing great, and is as healthy as can be, and so are Marx and the Red Men Volleyball Team.  Although these 5 seniors depart, a lot of young talent returns and hopefully will keep them strong for years to come.

If you would like to be considered for our Team of the Week Feature, send an email to ryan@bsg1881.com along with a team photo, recent success stories from tournaments or games, or a touching story.  Each week we will choose a winner and highlight them here on our blog.

Sunday, December 18 :: Mizuno Glove Steamer Day!

December 14th, 2011

On Sunday, December 18 from 11 am to 3 pm we will be holding a baseball glove steamer day!

If you are not familar with the glove steaming process, it is a machine that reconditions olds gloves or assists new gloves to become game ready, in less than 10 minutes!

How the conditioning process works:
A light coat of Mizuno “special sauce” is applied and carefully worked into the glove’s leather surface.  The glove is then placed inside the Glove Steamer for 1-2 minutes at a pre-determined temperature.  The freshly-steamed gloves are removed and the leather is pounded with a mallet to loosen stiff corners.

On Sunday only, we will be steaming any Mizuno glove purchased at Burghardt Sporting Goods within the last 30 days for FREE!

All Non-Mizuno Gloves purchased at Burghardt Sporting Goods (within the last 30 days) can be steamed for $15 and all gloves not purchased at Burghardt Sporting Goods can be steamed for $25.
