Maryland commit and St. John's (Shrewsbury) star Sean Burke is now alone as the Pioneers ace.

St. John’s Shrewsbury’s 2017 season ended the way many
thought it would.
Leading St. John’s Prep 5-4 in the top of the ninth inning
of the Division 1A “Super Eight” finals, Pioneers’ ace Ian Seymour spun an 0-2
changeup past Tyler MacGregor to begin the celebration.
Catcher Jack Gardner embraced Seymour and the rest of the
St. John’s squad that overwhelmed the opposition for most of the season
followed. A loaded senior class that
included Gardner, Seymour, number two-starter Matt Stansky, and shortstop David
Turco capped off their career in picture perfect fashion.
Sean Burke, who came charging in from first base, however,
is back for his senior season ready to lead St. John’s back to another dog
pile.
