BRISACK RECORDS 300TH WIN On their annual spring break Florida swing this March, the Edgewood College Eagles baseball team enjoyed competition and a brief relief from an awful winter in Wisconsin. But that’s not all. On March 10, the team scored five unanswered runs in their second game against Gettysburg College for a 5-1 victory and head coach Al Brisack’s 300th career win at Edgewood College. Al, who also serves as Director of Athletics, is the all-time winningest coach in school history. Congratulations, Coach!
