Multiple high school athletes don’t know where they want to attend college until their senior year. However, Pascack Hills starting pitcher, hitter, and center fielder Joey Giordano recently committed to the University of Richmond.
“Joey is a very hard working athlete that keeps his head down and means business every time he’s on the field,” Hills athletic director Steven Papa said.
During his sophomore year, Giordano pitched a no-hitter against No. 3 Ramapo after striking out 16 batters. He also won North Jersey Male Athlete of the Week in April for the Record.
“I can only see him getting better and adding to a very impressive high school baseball resume,” Papa said.
Giordano was contacted, but he was unavailable for comment.
Hills junior Olivia Ge is looking forward to being a part of the Trailblazer for another year. She joined the publication her freshman year as a staff member and has written for In-Depth, School News, and Sports. This year, Ge is excited to be a Sports Editor and Assistant School News Editor for the publication, covering events and BOE meetings.
Fun fact: Out of the different food categories, Ge's favorite is fruit, with the exception of bananas and pineapples.
