McFarland: Brotherly advice has helped Zdunich excel at Colby
“They’re competitive, but Turner Zdunich says there is no sibling rivalry between he and his three brothers.
That being said, he may still be reveling in the fact that he has eclipsed his older brother, Tucker, in a couple of career milestones at Colby Community College.
Over the course of three seasons (one shortened by the COVID-19 pandemic), the elder Zdunich hit .317 with 20 home runs and 86 runs batted in over 119 games with the Trojans.
With two weeks left in his second spring at Colby, Turner now has a career batting average of .386 to go along with 22 round trippers and 103 RBIs in 97 games.”

McFarland: Kucy closing out collegiate career at St. Bonaventure as full-time pitcher
“Coming to the ballpark for a game day looks a lot different for Ryan Kucy than it did when he first started going to college.
The Edmonton native came out of AHP Academy as a highly regarded infielder and performed very well in his first two seasons at Northeastern Junior College.
Everything was going according to plan when he made the move to St. Bonaventure University and was getting regular playing time at third base.
However, a month into his junior season, the Bonnies’ pitching staff ran into injury troubles, leaving head coach Jason Rathbun to find some reinforcements.
Enter Kucy, who had pitched in a couple of games for the Edmonton Prospects during the summer of 2024.”
