One On One with Mark Podlas

Westhamptons’ Best Kept Secret

ABD Player, Mark Podlas Taking his swings

A 6’3 lean, lefty ball player is a very rare find, but out east in Remsenberg, NY, you’ll find Mark Podlas, one of Long Island’s top and perhaps most unrecognized talents. Podlas started playing baseball when he was just a little boy. Taking swings and having a catch with his dad in the backyard was his favorite way to spend the afternoon. Little did he know that just over a decade later all that backyard fun would pay off and he’d be hitting .488 at Westhampton Beach High School and shagging fly balls at Yankee Stadium. Podlas is now training for the journey that lies ahead. The question is, “Will that journey be at UVA or with a professional baseball team?” We won’t get an answer until mid June, but for now let’s meet Mark Podlas, the four year starter from Westhampton Beach High School and early signee at University of Virginia.
