The 2024 Kendall Eagles varsity baseball team included five players who are cousins. Senior Louie Conte, his brothers, sophomore Jonny Conte and eighth grader Sammy Conte, along with cousins, sophomore Vinnie D’ Agostino and freshman CJ D’Agostino, are all part of Kendall’s starting lineup.
Baseball has been a family affair, with games a part of every family gathering. Multiple generations have been involved with Kendall’s baseball and softball programs. The Conte boys’ mom, Amy D’Agostino Conte; Vinnie’s dad, Phil D’Agostino; and CJ’s dad, Charlie, all were starting players while they attended Kendall High School in the 1990s. Even PaPa D’Agostino played for Kendall in his day.
It is a love of baseball and pride in school and community that makes this such a special moment for the family.
And just think, there are five more cousins (including one who is already an eighth grade star on the varsity softball team), ready to carry on the tradition of the Kendall Blue.
