The Bourne Braves kicked off their summer campaign on a high note, defeating the Chatham Anglers 5-1 in front of a packed crowd on Opening Day.
Guided by Field Manager Scott Landers, the team secured its third championship since he assumed leadership in 2022, a testament to his steady direction.
Returning shortstop Ryker Waite, who appeared in 33 games last summer and drove in 17 runs, and outfielder Mark Quatrani, who hit 15 home runs for Notre Dame this spring, added depth and experience to the lineup.
A Tradition of Excellence
President Nicole Norkevicius has emphasized the importance of improving skills and craftsmanship, a message that resonates with a strong network of volunteers, host families, and a loyal fanbase that fills the stands each game.
Even as the roster changes each summer, the Braves maintain consistent expectations and a focus on continual improvement, cementing their status as one of the most successful organizations in the Cape Cod League.
