Vincent likes Dodd Stadium site

Eastern Connecticut Conference baseball chairman Pete Vincent said the crowd could have been a bit more robust, but he's been pleased with how everything has gone in tonight's ECC baseball championship at Dodd Stadium.
"Dodd Stadium has been great offering up the facility," Vincent, the Ledyard High athletic director, said. "The kids got on the field for batting practice before the game, the field is in great shape and, hopefully, we can continue this for years to come."
The Defenders did chip in and help create the atmosphere. Connecticut General manager Charlie Dowd was even out in the parking lot prior to the game helping to direct traffic.
"It's a family crowd, a high school kid crowd, two good rivals (Montville and NFA), the only thing that could have been better was that the sun could have been shining a bit more," Dowd said.
