Duniop, Director Roeder heading to Georgia college he love of competition l has always driven Waterloo‘s Ryan Roeder, whether on the basâ€" ketball court with the WCI Vikings or on the baseball field with the Waterloo Junior Tigers. â€" His challenge was always to take on the best of the best and see where he fit in that pecking order. He might not have the talent of some of the other players, but he had the drive to make up the difference. That‘s why he always wanted to go to college down south, to see how he rated against some of the best American collegiate baseball players. He‘ll get that chance to test himself starting this August after Tiger about to find out where he fits in baseball American college style By Bos VrBaNaC Chronicle Staff excepting a scholarship to Armstrong Atlantic State University in Savannah, "It‘s always been a dream ever since I started baseball to go down and compete at the highest level you can," said Roeder. The Division II is in the sunbelt and features players that are used to playing baseball for most of the year. With that advantage in place, Roeder said his work ethic made the difference when he tried out for Armstrong head coach Joe Roberts. "I played in front of the coach and he liked what he saw," said the 19â€"yearâ€"old Junior Tabbies‘ second baseâ€" man, who will patrol leftâ€" field for his new club. "I ended up signing a couple of days later." That positive first impresâ€" sion earned Roeder a ticket to attend the school and a 95 per cent scholarship to the school that should take care of most of the cost of his education. The rest he‘ll make up in a summer job doing what comes naturally â€" tending the sports fields and baseball diamond at Bechtel Park. at the Southern school where the baseball season extends from August to May. The only time away from the game comes in November and December during the annual holiday season. He‘ll have to get used to being around the diamond "We‘re playing in the toughest Division II conferâ€" ence in the country, the peach belt," said Roeder. "The top six teams in that Waterloo‘s Ryan Roeder has accepted a scholarship to play baseball at Armstrong Atlantic University in Savannah, Georgia. division were ranked in the top 25 of the nation the last "We‘re going to be able to compete, and it‘s going to be good competitive ball and I‘m hoping to start my first One of the the things that Roeder will bring to the team is the ability to play the little game â€" bunting, advancing the runner and taking the extra base. "My coach likes guys who do the little things," said Roeder. "He likes guys who get a lot of base hits the other way, drive balls hard, hit and run. "With my running game and with my bunting game, I‘m going to fit in really well down there. Those are all of the things that I‘ve learned over the years with the coaches I‘ve played for." That baseball experience includes some time with the provincial team, and the defending Ontario baseball champs, the Waterloo Major Midget Civitans coached by Jason Marciniak. "They like to have the game in their hands," said Roeder. "I‘m going to really enjoy playing down there." Roeder said he‘ll also take the educational experience he gets down there seriously. While pro baseball is a dream, having a good eduâ€" cation is a must for most athletes who don‘t make the "The school is second in the state behind Georgia Tech for their science and their engineering proâ€" grams," said the future chemistry major. "I going to see where that takes me. "That‘s how 1 was brought up by my dad (Dave Roeder). It‘s always been about education first with sports coming second. My focus down there is going to be first on my schooling and second on my baseball." In addition to returning to Waterloo with a good eduâ€" cation, Roeder hopes to bring some baseball acuâ€" men back with him when he plays for the Junior Tigers. "I‘m going to play baseball 10 of the 12 months of the year and just enjoy it," said the college freshman, failing to conceal a obvious love of the game. or the third year in a row, the Triâ€"City Vipers defeated the Quebec Provincial All Stars team to win the Wilson Challenge Cup in a game played at Montreal‘s historic Molson Vipers tailback and game MVP Gordon Radlein proâ€" vided the major thrust for the visitors as he followed his veteran offensive line 22 times for 218 yards and three touchdowns.
