      Ricky Alfonso Barrington The promise Alfonso showed in a late-season call-up as a sophomore for a Class 4A supersectional came to fruition this year. The lefty-hitting, Indiana-bound leadoff man hit .387 with 14 RBI and 16 Doubles and an OBP of .485 while committing no errors in the outfield. “He’s a great competitor who really rebounded well from his junior year,” said coach Jim Hawrysko. “He has great work habits and he gained a lot of mental toughness over the last year Read more: http://dailyherald.com/article/20110609/sports/706099767/#ixzz1Ot65QcLh

    • Broncos flash leather despite losing opener:
      BASEBALL -- Barrington seniors Jake Broughton and Ricky Alfonso put on a highlight-reel defensive show during the Broncos' 6-0 loss on Opening Day at York on Saturday. Alfonso was also forced to leave his feet and extend his body while corralling a shot to right field to lead off the bottom of the third. Barrington left fielder Frank Waliczek followed that play up with a graceful, over-the-shoulder running catch near the wall Leading off the bottom of the sixth, Alfonso recorded the Broncos' third and final hit of the game but a strikeout and two fly outs closed the frame
    • Barrington’s Alfonso finds fit at Indiana:
      Having his number called last at Indiana University’s one-day winter baseball showcase was one of the best things to happen to Barrington senior Ricky Alfonso. Indiana coach Tracy Smith read off a few numbers of players he wanted to talk to when the camp was over. Alfonso was one of the chosen few from approximately 70 players who participated during the winter break from school. Advertisement Smith mentioned a scholarship and asked the left-handed hitting outfielder if he wanted to go to Indiana. Alfonso knew he couldn’t refuse and gave Smith a verbal commitment. “Going to the camp was a great opportunity,” Alfonso said. “I knew I had to do really well for anything to happen. I did and it worked out.” Alfonso said he had been talking to some smaller schools but had no other offers. He started looking at camps to attend during the winter break and decided on Indiana. Alfonso said in a 10-inning game inside Indiana’s indoor football facility he went 4-for-5 with 2 doubles and a homer. “I don’t know if I was surprised because I had done so well,” Alfonso said of getting Smith’s attention. “I was just relieved and happy he called my number. It was crazy.” It also gives Alfonso the chance to fulfill a goal he had before high school to play in the Big Ten. Indiana was 28-27 last year and won the conference tournament title in 2009. Alfonso was promoted to the varsity during his sophomore season and helped Barrington reach the Class 4A supersectional. He was a starting outfielder last spring and played in the summer with the Top Tier travel program. Hockey was originally Alfonso’s No. 1 sport but he gave it up his sophomore year because he saw more opportunities to play baseball in college. He plans to study business or finance as has a 4.0 grade-point average on a 4.0 scale and scored 27 on the ACT. “I liked staying in the Midwest and it’s pretty close to home, “Alfonso said. “It’s a big school and has great academics. It fit everything I was looking for.”

    • Top Tier 17s claims another CABA World Series:
      Top Tier 17s claims another CABA World Series August 3, 2010By TAYLOR BECHTOLD tbechtold@pioneerlocal.com Font Size Email Bookmark Black Text White TextBASEBALL -- The list seems to grow every time he steps onto the field. Kyle Ruchim added yet another accolade to his already impressive baseball resume, when the Stevenson High School graduate earned MVP honors and helped the Top Tier 17-U Americans win the 2010 CABA World Series in Euclid, Ohio. Top Tier also won the national championship last summer. "Winning the national championship two years in a row kind of puts the program in unchartered territory," Fine said. "It's a huge accomplishment for our program." It's been quite the season for Northwestern-bound Ruchim. In the spring, the standout infielder/pitcher picked up Chicago Sun-Times and Pioneer Press Lake Shore Player of the Year honors after leading the Patriots to third place at the IHSA Class 4A State Tournament. He also earned all-tourney honors during Top Tier's run to the national crown at the World Series a year ago. "It was as good as last year," Ruchim said. "This was my second year with the 17s because I'm a younger 17 (year old). The championship was good enough for me, but to get that MVP is just a great honor. I think that experience from last year really helped me." The Americans (40-8), headquartered in Lake Forest and run out of Slammer's Baseball by head coach Todd Fine, finished their season in impressive fashion by winning 34 of their last 37 games en route to the crown. They didn't just survive a grueling week of baseball -- they thrived and dominated with a perfect 12-0 record in the fiercely competitive national tourney. "It's a tournament like no other," Ruchim said. "It's like 12 games in six or seven days, with sometimes three games in one day. So you have to manage your pitching staff well." The Americans showcased a prolific offensive attack throughout the tournament. They led the tournament in runs scored (12 per game). They won seven games by the mercy rule and pounded the Stallions from downstate Illinois 9-1 in five innings in the championship. Tim Barry (Oak Forest), the 2009 and '10 CABA Most Valuable Hitter, became the program's all-time leader in home runs with 21 dingers over the past two summers. In addition to Ruchim and Barry, Ryan Koziol (Brother Rice), Paul Warble (Conant) and Chris Godinez (Lake Forest) also made the CABA All-Tournament team. Other key contributors for the Americans included RICKY ALFONSO OF(BARRINGTON), Max Allen (Highland Park), Jordan Chudacoff (New Trier), Joey Eichmann (Libertyville), Jack Czeszewski (St. Viator), Charley Gould (Lake Forest), Cory Kay (St. Viator), Tyler Radke (Stevenson), Brian Rodemoyer (Lyons), Nick Milligan (Galesburg), Chris Massimilian (Hinsdale South), Michael Martin (Stevenson) and John Kravetz (Mt. Carmel).
