Masiello Quick Quotes:
"Preseason is definitely a challenge…but I personally loved it because you really get to see the team grow. From the first day to the last day before we started to play you just saw such immense improvement."
"I just want to be the best possible teammate I can be, whether it's pitching or playing a different position or even being a great teammate on the bench. I just want to be the best teammate I can and help keep things positive for everyone."
"Our coaching staff, they are wonderful people that help you grow as athletes and as students…they are very concerned and caring about all of us and our program is really blossoming."
Up next: Rutgers-Newark hosts TCNJ in the New Jersey Athletic Conference (NJAC) opener for both schools Saturday on Alumni Field. The doubleheader is set for a 1 p.m. start.
