Down falling season ends with a jump The 1982 baseball season didn't start out as well as many anticipated. The dreams of holding a divisional playoff spot, or even a conference win seemed so far from reality. One of the hopes was shattered, while the other held strong to the very last game of the year. The team packed their bags for their long bus trip to Maurauder territory. The Eagle's jumped on top fast with a 16-4 lead, aided by Rich Lukaszewski's home run, and a three run homer by Mike Rogers. The Maurader's managed to gather an extra eight runs, but that wasn't enough to take away Bourgade's only conference win. The victory added achievement to a very long and frustrating season.

Beating Phoenix Christian and Peoria proved to be stimulating, but the biggest win came when they beat Globe for their only conference victory. Their main help came from Tim Beerling, who led the team with his fantastic performances in pitching and hitting. The Freshmen, despite all the acclaimed talent they possessed, had a rather disappointing season. Not winning a game all season proved to be the disappointment. Coaches John Aguilara, and Jim Callender had hoped for a better season. They did not expect to beat Corona or Gilbert, but they did expect a couple of wins sometime during their season. The team was led by Scott Damico's and Dave Cordovano's pitching, and also by the mighty hitting by Pete Woods. ll Catcher Danny Morquecho grabs the throw from left field and attempts to tag the Gerard base runner. 2l Victor DiGiovine receives a throw from the short stop, and successfully puts a Gerard rival out. 3l Danny Morquecho makes a valiant effort for the tag at home. 4l Andy Sykes gives Victor DiGioine a word of encouragement as the boys finish another inning. 5l Steve Kiszczak strokes the ball into left field for a single.
