Colbert pitches Christian Liberty to regional title

Dave Colbert and Christian Liberty came up with a couple of firsts Saturday at the Class 1A regional final at Morgan Park Academy in Chicago.

Colbert, a senior, threw his first complete game to lead the Chargers to the program's first baseball regional title with a 5-0 masterpiece over Morgan Park Academy.

Christian Liberty (13-12) will meet Grant Park on Wednesday in the sectional semifinals at Gardner-South Wilmington.

"It is really exciting," said Christian Liberty coach Jed Bennett, who is in his third year as head coach. "The five seniors on this team (Dan Glad, Juan Pagan, J.P. Dunlinsky, Shawn Andersen and Colbert ) have been starters since they were freshmen. They took their beating back then, but kept coming back. They are finally seeing the fruits of what they have been working for."

Colbert, who has pitched sparingly over those years due to injuries, never looked better. After he picked up a save in the Chargers' 3-0 victory last Wednesday against St. Benedict, Colbert scattered just 5 hits Saturday while striking out two.

"I got hurt a couple years ago and to be able to go 7 innings to win a championship means a lot to me," said Colbert, who threw 86 pitches, 52 for strikes. "I really felt comfortable with my defense out there. They were great out there. I knew what to do. Even with guys on base, I wasn't nervous."

"Every time we have put him into a game this year he has been fine," Bennet said. "We have been saving him for that big game, pitching him just enough so he his ready, but not so much that he ruins his arm."

Christian Liberty's defense was solid, with Colbert leading the way, snaring a line drive in the third inning and then doubling off the runner at first to end MPA's only threat in the third inning. The Chargers also received great defensive efforts by Aaron Karr, Pagan, Dan Glad, Pete Grob, Aaron Cunningham, Dunlinsky, Brennan Brosnan and Andersen, who threw out a base runner attempting to steal.

"It is really exciting to win after almost four years of losing," said Andersen. "And our defense was perfect. And two shutouts in a row is really nice to have."

Sandy-damaged Liberty Island to reopen by July 4

Posted on by

NEW YORK Lady Liberty will reopen just in time to celebrate the Fourth of July eight months after 75 percent of Liberty Island was submerged during the devastation of superstorm Sandy.

Crews have been working to repair Liberty Islands docks and replacing at least 53,000 bricks used to pave the islands promenade grounds.

Mold and saltwater destroyed electrical, telephone and radio infrastructure after basements were flooded, including that of the Statue of Liberty, said Linda Friar, National Park Service spokeswoman. The monument did not suffer flood damage, she said.

Several buildings on the island will not be rebuilt, however, including the home of the islands superintendent. A two-story administrative building will be rebuilt with its electrical system relocated to the second floor.

We are delighted that Lady Liberty will once again be open to the public, said David Luchsinger, superintendent of the Statue of Liberty National Monument and Ellis Island.

The devastation wrought by Hurricane Sandy crippled our operations, he said, adding that emergency funds from Congress helped pay for repairs and the rebuilding effort.

The island will have new and additional security-screening facilities.

Preliminary screening will be on Ellis Island, and secondary screening on Liberty Island, Luchsinger said. He said visitors will be subject to modern screening and detection technology.

The new system on Ellis Island replaces the facilities at Liberty State Park, N.J., and in lower Manhattans Battery Park, which were destroyed.

Luchsinger said the park service will boost security measures at Battery Park, Liberty State Park and on board the ferries.
