After the Tomahawks missed the tournament last season for the first time since 2011, Algonquin hopes to return to the postseason under new head coach Brian Doherty.
“He’s been helping out Coach (Mike Mocerino) for the last few years, so he has been around and he knows what he’s doing,” Algonquin junior pitcher Levi Carter-Frem said of the Tomahawks’ new coach. “I think he’s going to do a great job of leading this team.”
Doherty been an assistant baseball coach with former head coach Mike Mocerino for the last seven seasons. . .
