Most vividly, he remembers “a look of shock and horror” on the face of longtime assistant coach Adam Cardona. Given Andrews’ overwhelming success and relatively young age, 50, it was understandable for Northern baseball to be caught off guard by the hall of fame skipper’s decision, but it was one he had been mulling for almost a year. |
