Blackhawk Coach Jim Riggio Talks Softball & Baseball On Sports Slam
The playoff season for WPIAL baseball and softball has reached its pinnacle for 2019, with the WPIAL championship games slated for next Tuesday and Wednesday. In that spirit, Blackhawk softball coach (and former Blackhawk baseball player) Jim Riggio joined Matt Drzik and Greg Benedetti on the Saturday Sports Slam to talk about the success of his alma mater, as they head into battle with Beaver for the 4A Baseball Championship on Wednesday.
Riggio also spoke about his role as Blackhawk’s softball coach, the main differences between baseball and softball at the high school level, and the juggling of being a softball coach as well as running a business (the Beaver Falls Municipal Authority, to be exact).
