We are the Champions

UMBC WINS THE WMCB CHAMPIONSHIP

WCC won the toss and elected to field first. UMBC got an excellent century opening partnership from Raghav and Sumeet. With contributions from all the players UMBC managed to reach 224 in 40 overs on a slow and uneven pitch.

WCC in reply lost wickets at regular intervals, but managed to stay in the hunt thanks to their 8th wicket partnership. But in the end they could only manage to get 187 before they were bowled out.

Mission

The UMBC Cricket Club is part of the UMBC Sports Club. The University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) is located near the I-95/I-695 interchange south of Baltimore City. Cricket enthusiasts formed the “22 Yards: The Cricket Club” in 2004 to represent UMBC in the Washington Metropolitan Cricket Board, a professional cricket league based in Washington DC. The club gained recognition by SCC in January 2005 and comprised of 30 members. The founding president, Amitkumar Mahadevan and captain Faisel Maniar reached out to all the students and alumnus and raised the funds to build the infrastructure and procure essential equipment, which enabled UMBC to make a strong statement in the 2005 cricket season. To this day the club has grown to approximately 150 members and is placed in the first division of the league. This growth is attributed to the contribution from each and every member of the club and invaluable support from SCC.
