The blend is so perfect they should consider bottling it and selling it retail.

In their inaugural season as a baseball program, the Bloomfield Hills Blackhawks are scorching hot out of the starting blocks.

TEAM BOYD – a mix of former Andover and Lahser clubs – is 9-1 this month. The squad's pitching staff is sporting a stingy 1.51 ERA.

If this epic pace keeps up, we might be seeing this diamond cutting bunch in East Lansing come final four time later this spring just like their basketball brethren did in the winter.

Alright let's ROLL CALL it: PURPLE GANG STYLE!!

The Staff

Jack Wyman, Nick Schneider, Ray Leggett, Matt Almany, Grady Wildman, Joey Kramer, Braden Cleary & Cody Rump

Wyman, Schneider and Leggett have yet to surrender a single earned run this year.

Besides his exploits on the mound, Wyman, a senior captain and all-around sparkplug, is hitting .600 and has already cracked a pair of dingers.

Charlie Dauch – Inked with Miami (OH), Dauch is everything a skip could ever ask for in a competitor…THAT'S A FACT!

Perry Klemanski – The definition of power, precision and PRIMETIME presence in the line-up

Matt Bierman & Troy Saruna – A pair of the top sophomores in the OC, Bierman catches and Saruna plays in the outfield and both carry a heavy stick and exhibit all the intangibles; Bierman is hitting .460 and Saruna is flashing a .500 average a quarter through the season  

Todd Weiss – Superior talent in center, just a plain STUD

Preston Smith – The ultimate diamond "glue guy"
