The sun was out and the burger, hot dogs, and popcorn were consumed in mass. The Greg Moynahan Memorial Homerun Derby has become a Scituate Summer Tradition. Greg Moynahan, a longtime Scituate Little League and Scituate High School Baseball player and umpire, passed away in a car accident in 2004 at the age of 23. To keep his memory alive his friends started the Greg Moynahan Memorial Fund whose major fundraiser is the Homerun Derby. The fund is used to give away scholarships to Scituate High School Graduates.
Things were a little different this year then in the past. This years Homerun Derby was only open to Scituate Little League players. While this cut the number of batters down, it also made the entire day more manageable to everyone involved. Even so, there were still 60 batters and the event raised over $4,000.
This years 9 and 10 year old age group produced one of the most exciting competitions in the history of the Homerun Derby. After going three rounds, Daniel May and Liam Maguire were still tied. With only two outs to go in the 4th round Daniel May was able to emerge victorious. Both competitors shook hands and congratulated each other for a job well done.
For the 11 and 12 years olds Mike Vegnani and Joe Kensinger battled for the win with Vegnani muscling his was to victory. In the 13 and 14 year old finals Brendan May fell to Devin McCarthy who hit 21 homers. And in the 15 year old age group Daniel Buckley and Connor Gibbons battled with Buckley coming out on top.
The Greg Moynahan Memorial Committee who like to thank the following:
The Moynahan Family, The Gill Family, The Cook Family, Ellen McCurdy, The Satuit Bowlaway, Harbour House, Boston Sword and Tuna, Levin Family Dentistry, Belsans Bait and Tackle, Widows Walk, Stan Thompson, Scituate Country Club, JL Murphy, The Scituate Little League, Mike the Ice Guy, The Grill Masters and all the High School Players who came out to help.
