Jonathan Marcus (2007), MIF, Brookline HS, Brookline MA-- BABSON COLLEGE, Wellesley, MA
I can't even begin to describe how excited I am. The last four years have been a great journey and I just want to thank everyone who has helped guide me from HSBBW. Thank you again!
More than once in a while, a forum comes up regarding "the right fit." Right now, I feel like Babson (or "Babo" as the baseball guys call it), is the best possible, and right fit for me-- both on and off the field. I'm also lucky enough to be joining a program with such a well respected coach in the area, Coach Noone.
Once again, thanks everyone!

This is what it is all about Jon The only person that matters is what YOU think. If you feel this is the ideal fit than it can be nothing but that. Huge congrats!
Outstanding, Jon. Congratulations to you and Papa & Mama gold_glove3. You know I am a strong backer. You've worked as hard as anyone, and your best days are ahead of you.
When you go to Florida in February, you'll be about an hour from Wayback, Jr. If you bored......(it will be about three weeks into his season)
