Anthony Siciliano

Anthony hails from New Castle, Pennsylvania, a small town just outside of Pittsburg, Pennsylvania and currently serves as an associate professor of mathematics at Copper Mountain College in Joshua Tree, California.  A dedicated member of NAGAAA for over 20 years, Anthony began his journey with the league during the inaugural season of PSGSL and has been an integral part of its growth ever since.  Throughout his time in the league, Anthony has played with numerous teams, most notably Rounders 2.0, contributing to multiple championship runs.  He has proudly been a part of four NAGAAA World Series Championship teams--earning two titles in the A division, and most recently in the Legends C Division. 

Beyond the field, Anthony's commitment to the community has never wavered.  He has supported the league through fundraising, recruitment, participation in PRIDE parades, and promotional efforts.  His lasting impact, however, is best reflected in his humble leadership--always offering encouragement, respect, and support to every player, on and off the field.
