BY RYAN O’CONNORCarrying a nine-game winning streak and a freshly minted New Hampshire state title, Bedford players packed their bats, gloves and cleats and traveled roughly 125 miles south to Rhode Island.
There, in West Warwick, the first-year Steven-Buswell Post No. 54 American Legion junior baseball squad competed against the best teams ...

BY RYAN O’CONNORFor years, coaches of the Manchester Jutras senior American Legion baseball team have tossed Bedford, Goffstown and Manchester players into a diamond- shaped mixing bowl and consistently concocted a winning recipe.

BY RYAN O’CONNORAs it turned out, the difference between these two teams was negligible.
The Bedford 10- and 11- year-old Little League all-star team, undefeated prior to a 14- 2 setback against Goffstown on Saturday, July 19, met the same foe the next day for the state title.
It was Bedford’s third straight contest against its ...

BY RYAN O’CONNORThe 2008 Fresno State baseball team is no secret to those who follow college athletics or who watch SportsCenter on a daily basis.
