In a recent discovery by WHRW News Director Robert Glass, it has been revealed that Binghamton University has risked personal information of faculty who were in its employ. In a dumpster in a public location in the Binghamton University library, folders containing names and social security numbers of professors from the Romance Languages department from the 1970s and 80s were discarded without shredding or any form of redaction on April the 28th. The documents, discovered when Glass was walking by the dumpster in question on his way to the library, were found on top of the dumpster clearly visible to passers-bye and needed no searching to be found.

The documents discovered were gathered and turned over to the University Police Department within thirty minutes of their discovery, who promptly secured the dumpster and searched it for more documents containing personal information.

It was student night at NYSEG stadium on Tuesday as 1,200 Binghamton University undergrads filled NYSEG stadium to watch the Binghamton Mets host the New York Yankee-affiliate Trenton thunder. As a nod to the students, Student Association president Matt Landau threw out the ceremonial first pitch of the game (though, with poor aim.)

In a contest shortened to only six and a half innings by rain, the Mets defeated the Thunder, the double A affiliate of the New York Yankees, by a score of 8-5. The Mets’ offense stayed largely dormant until the bottom of the 4th, when Trenton starter Eric Hacker was lit up for 7 runs, in an inning which included two errors and two walks issued by the Thunder. Hacker also delayed the inning for over a quarter of an hour with complaints to the umpires and ground staff about the quality of the pitching mound.

The Binghamton Mets game against the Trenton Thunder on April the 20th, 2009 has been postponed due to inclement weather. The game will be played in a double header on May 16th, 2009 at 5:05 PM.

The Binghamton Mets won a close game today 4-2 against the Boston Red Sox affiliate Portland Sea Dogs on the strength of well-timed run production and a good deal of fine pitching at NYSEG Stadium. Portland starter Junichi Tazawa, though a highly-touted prospect in the Red Sox organization, looked shaky in the early innings, working out of trouble capably enough to allow only two earned runs in his four and a third innings of work. Binghamton's Ryan Coultas, on the other hand, pitched almost impeccably, throwing a no-hitter into the fifth inning, before allowing two runs on a pair of singles and being pulled for Adam Bostick, first in a series of Binghamton relievers who would keep Portland scoreless for the rest of the game.

Binghamton's two most dramatic runs came on solo home runs off the bats of first baseman Lucas Duda, in the sixth, and, two innings later, by third baseman Shawn Bowman, who also impressed defensively with a memorable diving stop of a line drive in the sixth. Catcher Josh Thole, going 0-4, broke his six-game hitting streak, but nonetheless contributed by driving in second baseman Matt Bouchard on a sacrifice fly to center field in the fifth inning.
