March 13, 2017 - Daytona Beach, FL - John Carroll High School Grad Mario Presutti is tearing it up at Daytona State College. The Mighty Mario has belted six home runs so far, this season including a walk-off against Ocala State College, a school that had promised to sign him and strung him along for six weeks before telling him thanks, but no thanks, and essentially leaving him hung out to dry last year.
The Freshman's six dingers not only lead his Falcons team but also account for almost 40% of the home runs hit by the team this season.
And if that were not enough, Super Mario is locked in a tie for third place for home runs in the National Junior College Athletic Association’s (NJCAA) Region 8 which includes 25 Schools throughout Florida. Putting that in perspective, each of the 25 teams in the NJCAA Region 8 has 24 roster student-athletes for a total of 600 student-athlete baseball players, meaning that Presutti's home run hitting this season is better than 99.5% of all rostered baseball players in the NJCAA Region 8.
I'll bet you that Ocala Head Baseball Coach is kicking himself where the sun don't shine right about now.
