Garden City High School graduate and Bentley University pitcher Rob Finneran was voted to the first team of the 2012 All-Northeast-10 Conference squad by the conference’s head coaches.
For Finneran, this is his third appearance on the All-Northeast-10 team. He was selected for the second team in 2009 and the third team in 2010 before missing last season following Tommy John surgery.
The right-handed graduate student has come back strong this season, compiling an 8-3 record with a 2.26 ERA and 78 strikeouts in 79.2 innings. The eight wins is tied for the most in the program’s history, and tied for the NE-10 lead. He has given up zero or one run in seven of his 12 starts and has been part of three shutouts (two-hitter against Adelphi and two combined).
Finneran, despite pitching only three seasons for the Falcons, is number one on Bentley’s all-time lists in strikeouts (229), ERA (2.81) and winning percentage (.724).
