Ten years ago, Nick Brannan took over as the head coach of Milford’s baseball team, from the start one thing was very clear about him. He had a quiet air of confidence about him, he also had the wisdom to know he couldn’t do it alone. In his very first year at the helm, Brannan led the Buccaneers to the state title game, falling to Saint Mark’s by a 4-3 score. While the Buccaneers haven’t been back to the title game since, the Milford baseball program is one of the more highly regarded teams in Delaware.
