USF baseball doesn't play third-seeded Notre Dame until 8 p.m. in Clearwater, but I wanted to get a link up to today's story on Bulls stars Joey Angelberger and Addison Maruszak and how both have been inspired by their brothers in their baseball careers.

How much does baseball mean to their families? Last year, Angelberger's older brother, Lenny, had set his wedding date for March 24, but when he realized that date conflicted with USF's road trip to play Notre Dame, he and his fiance opted to reschedule their wedding to a later date, rather than take that experience away from Angelberger. Joey had three hits that day at Notre Dame, and March 24 is also special to him because it was his late brother Chris' birthday.

Both players should have lots of family and friends at Bright House Field this week, as Angelberger is from Dunedin, just five minutes or so up U.S. 19, and Maruszak's family is just 15 minutes away in Pinellas Park. More baseball to come later ...
