Rodney Velardi, the manager of Atlantic Cape Community College in New Jersey, resigned from his role as the program’s coach after 13 seasons.
Velardi’s resignation came on May 4, nearly two weeks removed from an 11–4 loss to Rowan College Gloucester County in which two of his players had illegal communication devices found in their helmets.
Rowan freshman pitcher Ethan Dodd approached his coaches following the first game of the team’s series with Atlantic Cape on Apr. 21 after he felt that he may have been tipping his pitches.
