The celebration continues for the Johnston Little League Senior State Champions, who advanced to the Eastern Regional Tournament in New Jersey.
Manager Gary Rianna – and his fine coaches Robert Civetti and Mike Castelli – as well as each and every player who helped Johnston capture the district and state titles, were honored with special commendation by the Town Council.
The 2017 champions received commendations and a resolution recognizing their tremendous athletic achievement. The ceremony took place during a Town Council meeting held inside the Municipal Court House.
Players on that title team were: Ryan Allen, Alex Rodriguez, Rudy Landin, Miguel Perez, Mike Castelli, Tyler Roche, Luke Vincent, Bobby Civetti, Matt Loffredo, Josh Tonucci, Eric O’Connor and Justin Salvatore.
