Matthew Colantonio – Brown University

Justin Roswell: Where Are They Now?

Matthew Colantonio (Garden City, NY), current true freshman for Brown University was named Ivy League Rookie of the Week for the second time this season. After 35 games with the Bears, Matt is hitting .384 with 21 RBI’s and leads the team with a .493 on-base percentage.

Prior to Matt’s collegiate career, he was an outstanding student-athlete in high school. He participated at several Baseball Factory and Team One Baseball Showcases. His very first event was the Baseball Factory B.A.T.S. (Baseball and Academic Targeting Service) Program—now the Signature College Recruiting Program. His performance at the B.A.T.S. event propelled him to earn a spot on the Baseball Factory USA Junior Olympic Tournament team.

He continued to train, condition, and work on his game and was asked to represent Baseball Factory at Dodgertown and train with former National Cross-checker Mac Seibert. Mac selected Matt to attend the 2006 All American Tournament and the Team One East Showcase. Matt performed very well at Team One East and was honored as one of the top ten participants at that event, eventually leading the coaching staff at Brown to offer Matt an opportunity to earn a spot on their 2008 roster.

We would like to acknowledge Matt on his academic and athletic achievements at Brown.
