Martin leads Beejays to title

Monday, August 16, 2010

Emporia State pitching coach John Martin capped his first season as the head coach of the Liberal Beejays by leading his team to a win in the National Baseball Congress World Series in Wichita.

The Beejays defeated the Seattle Studs 9-6 in the championship game, rebounding with one run in the fifth and two in the sixth after blowing a 6-0 lead earlier in the contest.

Martin became the second member of ESU’s current coaching staff to win an NBC World Series title as a coach. Hornets head coach Bob Fornelli led the El Dorado Broncos to the NBC title in 1998.
