WHAT THEY'RE SAYING ABOUT LONG
"Danny has been a staple in the infield for us over the years. He was as steady a defender as they come, right at the top with career fielding percentage. He had good power at the plate and got some big hits for us over the years. A real good competitor." - Head Coach Dean Ehehalt
"An absolute gamer. Loved being at practice with him and watch him turn into a different guy when the game starts." - Zach Schild
"One of the best infielders I've ever played with. Has a swagger about him on the field and just overall great teammate." - Chris Hawryluk
"My guy. I did everything with Danny. Thankful for the friendship we have and will continue to have in the future." - Johnny Zega
"Best memory: his home run against Quinnipiac in 2018." - James Kelly
"One of the better athletes in the program. Best memory was the homer against Quinnipiac in the 2018 conference tournament." - Jordan McCrum
"One of the most athletic people I have ever seen. Convinced he could also play basketball. Also a great teammate and was always there for anything you needed. A memory that sticks out was at Dallas Baptist and they brought in their closer who was throwing absolute gas. We didn't think anyone was going to touch him but the first pitch he threw, Long hit out." - Regan Dombroski
"Great teammate. Favorite memory was his home run in the 2018Â MAAC Tournament against Quinnipiac." - JP Walsh
