Perry Kulaga tossed a complete game five-hitter striking out nine batters and walking only two to help lead the eighth-seeded Middletown South Eagles to an impressive 7-1 win over the 25th-seeded Point Pleasant Beach Garnet Gulls in an opening round game of the Shore Conference Tournament on May 15th.

The top performer for the Eagles was Rob Grilli, who went 3-for-3 with a run scored. Middletown South gave their fans something to

cheer about by pulling off a double squeeze play in the bottom of the fifth inning when Grilli broke for home from third base and Frank Servidio took off from sec-ond base before a perfect bunt by pinch-hitter Hunter Dreuer plated them both.

“Our pitching and defense has been solid all season,” Middletown South head coach Ryan Spillane said. “Rob, Perry and Mike Gros-si all have an ERA under two runs per game.”

Coming off a tough 4-2 loss at Toms River East on May 16th, the Eagles were looking to get back on track when they hosted the

ninth-seeded Howell Rebels on May 18th in a Shore Conference Tourna-ment round of 16 matchup. But the Rebels had other plans knocking off the Eagles, 6-5. Middletown South’s overall record now stands at 12-10.

According to Coach Spillane, the biggest highlights for the Eagles this season have been beating Marlboro, 3-1 earlier in the sea-son behind a complete game two-hitter and career-high 12 strikeouts by Grilli and knocking off Howell, 6-5 on May 7th on a sacrifice fly by

Servidio, which plated pinch run-

ner Mike Diorio in the bottom of the

10th inning. The victory gave the

Eagles a tie for the Class A North

public division title with the Rebels.

The sixth-seeded Eagles were sched-

uled to host 11th-seeded and de-

fending champion Freehold Boro in

the first round of the Central Jersey

Group III tournament on May 20th.

“We have had an up and down sea-

son and we need to get timely hits,”

Spillane said.

WEST LONG BRANCH – Rumson Fair Haven’s big game experience was evi-dent from the outset, as the third-seed-ed Bulldogs (14-2) thoroughly domi-nated the No.1 seed Southern Regional Rams 14-5, Tuesday at Monmouth Uni-versity’s Kessler Field.

The Bulldogs have played in a Shore Conference record seven Shore Con-

ference Tournament (SCT) finals and became the first boys’ lacrosse team to win three straight SCT titles. They are joined by Christian Brothers Acad-emy as the only four-time winners of the boys’ lacrosse SCT title. Rumson now holds a 4-3 record in SCT finals after yesterday’s over-powering perfor-mance against the states 15th ranked team.

As a two-time defending SCT champi-on, being seeded No.3 may have given the Bulldogs a little extra motivation. “I think that may have been a little bit of a gift,” Bulldogs head coach Reid Jackson said with sly grin. “People didn’t realize [just how good we are]; it took the pres-sure off us being a three seed.”

The Bulldogs, who dominated South-ern (14-1) in all phases of the game, jumped out to a 5-0 lead with 3:45 left in the first quarter.

Midfielder Chris Hubler helped the Bulldogs get off to the fast start scoring two of the first three goals of the game, while playing a tremendous all-around game for Rumson. Hubler picked up four ground balls, played solid defense and got the ball to his teammates.

“Hubler’s a player,” Jackson said. “He gets everything done. He’s athletic and makes it all happen; people underesti-mate him.”

The Bulldogs first-line attackers all scored goals in the opening 5-0 on-slaught; Juniors Colin Shea at 7:20, and Dominic Padula at 4:05, while se-nior Michael Clark found the back of the net at 3:45 to make it 5-0.

Southern pulled to within 5-2 with 33 seconds remaining in the first quarter to gain a momentary boost, before Rumson answered with a momentum-killing goal with 4.5 seconds left in the

quarter. Junior attacker Chris Sutphen scored unassisted on the play.

Rumson kept pouring it on in the sec-ond period, scoring the next three goals to make it 9-2 at the 7:17 mark. Shea, Hunter Rotchford and Padula all scored.

Southern’s Dylan Jinks cut the lead to 9-3 at 3:55, but Clark at 2:02 and se-nior Michael Villane at: 05 answered with goals of their own, to close out the first half scoring with Rumson in com-plete control, 11-3. Clark and Villane assisted on each other’s goals.

Jinks, Southern’s top scoring threat and seventh in Shore Conference scoring, was held in check all afternoon by an outstanding defensive effort by junior defenseman J.T. Jennings, who had man-on-man responsibilities most the day on Jinks.

“J.T. is a game player,” Jackson said. “The bigger the game gets the better J.T. gets; he’s deceptively quick. We thought we matched up well, person-nel wise with Southern. We made one adjustment in the first quarter and after that we had what we wanted.”

The Bulldogs controlled possession and play throughout the game with precise ball movement, distributing it to open man in an uncanny fashion. “It’s fundamental lacrosse,” Jackson

RED BANK – With No.1 seed Red Bank Catholic (21-2) safely ahead of fifth seeded St. John Vianney, 9-4 in the bottom of the sixth, Casey senior right fielder Anthony Yaccarine came to the plate with runners at second and third and a chance to hit for the cycle (home run, triple, double and single). Having already singled, tripled and doubled in his previous three at bats, Yaccarine

needed a homer to com-plete the prestigious cycle.

“I was aware of it, but I re-ally wasn’t going for it,” Yaccarine said. “I just want-ed to hit the ball and get the runners in from second and third. I heard it in the dugout, but it didn’t even cross my mind; I was just trying to get the ball into the gaps.”

Yaccarine had already de-livered the biggest hit of the day in the bottom of the fifth, breaking up a tie ball game with a two-run double, putting the Caseys ahead 6-4 on the way to a 11-5 victory over the Lanc-ers (13-8) in the semifinals of the Monmouth County

Tournament, Thursday at Count Basie Park.

Yaccarine drove in five runs on the day batting from the seven spot in this very potent line up, that up until recently has hit below expectations. However, the Casey bats have come alive and their 11-5 victory marked the fourth straight

game RBC has scored nine or more runs.

“I knew what they (his play-ers) were capable of, “Casey head coach Bud Hausman said. “When they were going to be ca-pable, you never know. But they are all in there (the lineup) for a reason.”

“If one of us hits, all of us hit, Yaccarine said. “Everyone gets on each other and we pick each other up, it’s like a domino effect; we keep going and going.”

Senior clean-up hitter and Uni-versity of Maryland recruit, Mike Rescigno, got the domino’s fall-ing with a 375 foot two-run blast over the right center field fence in the bottom of the third, his fourth

home run of the year, to break a 1-1 tie and give the Caseys a 3-1 lead. Rescigno went 2-3 with a home run, double, three runs scored and two RBI.

“We’re playing our best ball of the year right now,” Rescigno said. “We’re all swinging the bats well, top to bottom. I think we got what it takes (pitching, hitting, and defense) to go all the way; we have great team chemistry.”

“This is when you want it to come together,”Hausman said. “This is the most important time of the year and the hitters are finally breaking out, I knew it would happen eventually; the weather had something to do with it, the spring’s been awful.”

The Lancers went ahead in the top of the fourth on an RBI double into right center by third baseman Anthony Lavigne to make it 4-3, before RBC tied it in the bottom of the inning on Yacca-rine’s RBI triple of the center field wall.

Red Bank Catholic’s four-run fifth, ig-nited by Yaccarine’s two-run double, broke the game open when one pitch after Yaccarine’s blast, junior catcher Michael Alescio ripped a double into the left center field gap, over the head of left fielder Evan Pietroncio for two more runs and a 8-4 lead.

In the bottom of the sixth, the Caseys tacked on three more runs when Rescig-no led off with a double, advancing to third on the throw and scoring on an infield hit and RBI by junior shortstop Al Molina. Senior first baseman Ron Rob-inson lined a double into center before Yaccarine came through with runners in scoring position for a third time in the game, lining a two-run single to center field and an 11-4 lead.

RBC’s clutch hitting helped keep Thurs-day’s starter, senior right-hander John Selden’s record perfect for the season at 6-0. Thursday was easily his tough-

est start of the season, giving up four earned runs on five hits, walking three with no strikeouts in four innings of work. He left the game with the score tied at four.

“Selden has carried us in his starts this year,” Hausmann said. “He hasn’t lost a game, He’s got an ERA under one com-ing into today and he just didn’t have it today. He battled and it was good to see the guys pick him up today because he’s been picking them up all year.”

The Caseys will play the winner of the Friday’s semifinal matchup pitting, third seeded Wall against No.2 seed Chris-tian Brothers Academy, at First Energy Park in Lakewood, either Monday or Tuesday night depending on the out-come of Friday’s game.

Red Bank Catholic hopes to break a string of two consecutive losses in the finals of the Monmouth County Tourna-ment and bring home the elusive win-ners trophy.

“It would mean a lot,” Yaccarine said. “After last year watching from the bench I wanted to come back (to the final) this year. I want to win, that’s it.”

By Eric BraunLONG BRANCH- Coming off a frustrating 5-5 season in2011, the Green Wave from Long Branch High Schoolhave gotten back to their tradition of ground and pound.The Wave has rushed out to a 2-0 record with wins overManasquan and Monmouth, relying mostly on the legs ofJosil Jackson and the arm of Avery Griffin.

Long Branch took a hit during their final pre-seasongame when senior tailback Dwight Clark went down witha broken left ankle. Clark is expected back by midseasonbut Coach Dan George needs to keep his team focused andmoving forward to get back to Class B North dominanceand be eligible for the NJSIAA tournament. CoachGeorge also lost senior tight- end and linebacker Dominic Mincieli when he suffered a knee injury in the spring, butMincieli should be back in the first couple weeks of the

season.Minus the injuries, the Green Wave is in prime posi-

tion to challenge Neptune, Wall and Ocean in the ShoreConference B North division. Top to bottom this is thetoughest division in the Shore Conference. Coach Georgewill look to get additional contributions from juniorShabazz Shuler and seniors Curtis Gunther and TreySmith at wide outs. On defense, the Wave will look forChris Pappayluo and senior safeties Corey Morris andBrett Roach to shutdown opposing offenses.

By Brian DanemanThe Howell Rebels might have known they were in

for a rough night at the swamp when they were calledfor a delay of game penalty before the game even start-ed. The penalty was rightfully called because theRebels did not enter the field until well after 7pm leav-ing the home team to wait on the sidelines.

The game was riddled with penalties on both sides ofthe ball. Nineteen penalties were called to be exact andfive were on just the first series. But otherwise, it wasa well-played game. Howell’s passing efforts actuallylooked quite sharp on their first two possessions withsix completions and four first downs. On their thirdpossession, the relentless Eagle defensive line sackedRebel quarterback Connor McGlynn at the Rebels ownthree- yard line. In doing so, they knocked him out ofthe game and into an awaiting ambulance with a pos-sible neck or shoulder injury.

From this point late in the first quarter MiddletownSouth began to soar behind the power running of JakeRipnick scoring on three subsequent drives. Ripnickran for 157 yards and two touchdowns on 24 carries.The Eagles took advantage of the loss of the Howellquarterback and pressured his substitute Aaron Trimblefor the rest of the night leading to five sacks and twointerceptions; one by junior Andrew Wisialko for sixyards and one later in the second half by speedsterElijah Smith for a 60- yard touchdown return. TheSouth defense was tenacious all night and gave theoffense great field position on every series.

The offense led by Ripnick and quarterback Kyle

Bray moved the ball well throughout the game relyingheavy on the run but also sprinkling in a few passesto shake things up. Bray’s throws were accurate espe-cially the 25- yard bullet he threw to junior wide outTaylor Hendrickson late in the second quarter for thethird score of the game. The two connected on four

passes for the entire game. The South offensive anddefensive lines controlled the line of scrimmage foralmost the entire game and helped to earn the lopsidedvictory.

The Rebels did manage to score a touchdown late inthe fourth quarter on a 24- yard throw from Trimble to

WALL – It was business as usual for the No.1 seed Lancers, as they defeated second seed-ed Wall Township, 8-0, in the finals of the Monmouth County Tournament Red Division, Saturday afternoon on the Crimson Knights’ home field.

The Lancers have been to the finals of the MCT six of the last eight years and with Saturday’s win, have taken home the winner’s trophy the past four consecutive seasons.

“It’s a new team every year with a new crop of kids, so winning the title never gets old,” head coach Kim Lombardi said. “Every year you have them believing in each other and believing in what the coaches ask of them and the outcome is the outcome.”

Starting pitcher and Notre Dame recruit junior, Kate Beriont, completely stifled the Knights, tossing a complete-game shutout, striking out seven and allowing only a bloop first-inning single, while issuing two walks for her 19th win of the season.

As is usually the case with Beriont, she got stronger as the game went on and appeared unhittable if not untouchable in the late in-nings.

“She absolutely gets stronger as the game progresses,” Lombardi said. “Once she gets a little lead and figures out the hitters, her confi-dence increases and she’s awfully tough to hit in the late innings. I always feel confident with Kate on the mound and our defense behind her.”

“I get into the flow of the game,” Beriont said. “And once you go through the lineup you have a better idea of what the batters’ swings are like and what their tendencies are. Coach also sees this and she calls the pitches.”

Saint John Vianney (21-1), ranked fifth in the state, jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the bot-tom of the first. Senior center fielder Amanda Durham led off with a ground single up the middle and raced home on No.2 hitter, junior Jackie Gallegher’s RBI triple over the head of the center fielder.

Sophomore right fielder Claire Stefanelli then drew a walk before freshman designated hit-ter, Helena Coppola, lined an RBI double down the first base line, bringing home Ste-fanelli with the second run of the inning. Cop-pola then scored on an error for 3-0 lead.

It stayed that way until the bottom of the fourth, when junior third baseman, Marlena Bevilacqua reached first on an infield hit and scored on Durham’s RBI triple off the right field wall. Durham scored on the next play when the third baseman Katie Wingle threw the ball away, handing the Lancers a 5-0 lead.

In the top of the inning, Bevilacqua made two outstanding plays at third base and then again in the fifth she made a terrific pick-up and throw to first, on a seemingly impossible play.

“I pride myself on defense,” Bevilacqua said. “We work really hard on our defense in prac-tice, we know our bats will come through when we need them, so we really focus on defense; defense wins championships.”

“Marlena did a great job today,” Lombardi said. “She filled a senior spot last year for us and has been lights out ever since. She made two phenomenal plays today and those are the type of plays she makes all the time.”

“Obviously you need pitching and hitting but defense wins championships,” Lombardi also said. “I tell that to the kids all the time, we work on it constantly in practice and it shows in games.”

Bevilacqua also contributed with her bat, going 3-3, with a stolen base and two runs scored.

The Lancers put the game away with three more runs in the bottom of the sixth when Gallagher had an RBI single in the hole and Steffanelli lined a single to center, driving in two runs.

Beriont pitched a perfect one-two-three sev-enth and the Lancers walked away with an 8-0 win and another trophy.

In 2011 the Lancers won the Monmouth County Tournament, Shore Conference Tour-nament, the Non-Public South A Sectional title and the Non-Public Group A State title; an amazing feat. I asked Lombardi if she’s shoot-ing to that again and her response was what you would expect out of coach who has just about won everything there is to win.

“We’re going to be shooting to win whatev-er our next game is,” she said. “If it means getting it all again, then it means getting all again.”

Fifteenth-seeded Manalapan pieced together a two-run rally in the bottom of the seventh inning to overtake Ma-tawan and walk off 7-6 winners in the opening round of the Shore Conference baseball tournament on May 15.

The seventh and final frame was an up-and-down one for the host Braves, who fell behind in the top of the in-ning when Matawan senior first base-man, Dan Incle, smacked a go-ahead solo home run to give the Huskies a 6-5 advantage. But the home team had other ideas, rallying to tie the game in the bottom half when senior catcher Mike Knauf was awarded home on a balk, then securing the victory when se-nior third baseman Billy Moed knocked in fellow senior James Halasy with a game-winning walkoff RBI single.

Besides Incle and Moed, other top per-formers in the game included Halasy, who went 2 for 3 with two runs and two RBI, Manalapan junior Matt Parker, who also went 2 for 3 and scored twice, and Matawan senior Pat DePaolo, who had two hits and scored once.

With their win, Manalapan advanced

to the Shore Conference Tournament round of 16 and met second-seeded Red Bank Catholic on Saturday, May 18.

The two-time defending Group 4 cham-pion Braves were assigned the fifteenth seed in the NJSIAA Central Group IV tournament on Thursday, May 16, draw-ing a first round meeting with second-seeded Jackson on May 20. Matawan earned the third seed in Central Group II and will host Delaware Valley on the same date.

WEST LONG BRANCH – The combina-tion of juniors Mary Scarrone, Bridget Curran and Nicolette Dunphy and a shut-down defensive performance was just too much for defending champion Red Bank Catholic to overcome, as the No.1 seed Bulldogs defeated the second seeded Caseys, 14-9, in the Shore Conference girls lacrosse final at Monmouth University on Friday af-ternoon.

Attacker Mary Scarrone scored four goals and added two assists, attacker Nicolette Dunphy put four in the back of the net and had an assist, while Midfielder Bridget Curran scored twice and assisted on four others.

“That was the connection that needed to happen today for us to win,” Head coach Amy O’Keefe said. “They’ve been awesome all year for us; they made me so proud today.”

“We just really see each other all over the field,” Scarrone said. “We’ve played together since we were little, so that’s what makes it work; we just love playing together.”

Rumson (15-5) jumped out to a quick 2-0 lead on goals by senior attacker Emily Knapp and Dunphy in the first five minutes of the game. But the Ca-seys (18-2) quickly responded, tying the game on two goals by junior mid-fielder Amanda Casten with 18:14 showing on the clock.

The team’s traded two goals apiece before Rumson scored three straight to take a 7-4 lead at the 9:31 mark of the first half. Scarrone scored first and Dunphy followed with two goals.

Red Bank Catholic answered with two goals of their own, as sophomore midfielder Grace Fallon scored at 8:37 and Casten followed at 4:41 to make it a one-goal game in this see-saw battle of the Shore Conference’s two lacrosse heavyweights.

Casten’s goal shifted the momen-tum in the Casey’s favor, but that was short lived as Scarrone grabbed a Curran pass about twenty yards out, rushed the goal and scored from about seven yards out. Scarrone made a number of brilliant moves on the play to break free on her way to the net, while controlling the ball for the score.

The half ended with Rumson ahead, 8-6, but this was still anyone’s game at this point.

“At the half, we thought the game would stay close and continue to go back-and-forth.” O’Keefe said. “We just knew we needed to get the ball, keep possession and play like it’s a new game. Our attack needed to do their job and our defense had to do theirs.”

That is exactly what happened as the Bulldogs scored the first three goals of the second half, and the defense shutout the Casey’s juggernaut of-fensive attack for over 15 minutes at the start of the half.

“Our defense was tremendous to-day,” Scarrone said. “Madison (Mc-Guire), Courtney (Dunphy) and Jes-sie (Yorke) are all great players. They were totally clicking together, making their slides and shutting down those great RBC scorers. Maddie (Mullen) came up with some great saves (9) that saved us in clutch situations.”

“She played her heart out,” O’Keefe said of Mullen. “That was quality in the net at the right time.”

Dunphy got the ball rolling scoring first to open the second half surge, followed by freshman midfielder Maggie Jennings and then Curran.

TOMS RIVER— The state tour-nament began with some of-fensive fireworks for the Toms River South girls’ lacrosse team. The Indians (15-2) put 39 shots on goal and 15 of them found the back of the net as they downed King-sway by a score of 15-8. The 13th seeded Dragons (5-12) overall trailed 10-4 at half-time and never threatened in the second half. The senior-laden Indians are hoping to have one last spin deep into the playoffs.

TR South, seeded 4th in the South Group III bracket, re-ceived the most offense from senior Macy Scott. She tallied a game-high six goals and broke the school record with 100 goals on the season. Scott, who has committed to Rutgers for college, is now within reach of the career goal record at TR South. She has 258 goals and is just 10 shy of the mark which she could reach if the Indians continue to advance in the postseason.

They also received a lot of offense from Abby Pollioni who scored four times. Laura Kurzynowski added three goals and Noelle Shirey chipped in

twice. Goaltender Mariam Ahmed made six saves in net.

The Indians advance to the second round where they will face the winner between 5th seeded Wall and 12th seeded Seneca. The team is hoping for a trip to the state final to cap a season of accomplishments. TR South already won the Class A South Divi-sion for the first time in school history.

TR South LAX Drops Kingsway in StatesBy Ted Kaiser

Toms River East senior pitcher Jor-dan Weed finished her dominating run through the 2013 Ocean County softball tournament, striking out 10 Toms River North batters while scattering six hits in a 10-0 shutout win over the tournament’s top seed in the May 14 tournament final at Toms River South.

The second-seeded Raiders knocked off TR North in convincing fashion for the second time this season, tying a team re-cord for hits in an OCT title game with 14 while Weed held the Mariners’ bats in check. Outfielder Taylor Dziedzic tied a TR East individual record for hits in an OCT title game with four. Second base-man Casey Varvaro had three hits of her own and catcher Val Hirschfeld went 2-for-4 with three runs batted in, includ-ing a key single in the third inning that led to three Raiders runs and effectively opened the floodgates leading to a third straight OCT title.

The tournament MVP, Weed, made a habit of rewriting the Ocean County

Tournament record books during the Raiders’ run through the field, starting with an April 17 perfect game against Manchester in which the Boston Col-lege-bound senior became the first OCT pitcher to retire every batter she faced via strikeout. Weed’s 21 strikeouts bested TR North’s Lauren Anderson, whose mark of 19 stood for nearly 15 years. The seven-inning perfect game was also the first of its length in tournament history. She car-ried her shutout streak through a 10-0 April 27 win over seventh-seeded Central Regional before finally relinquishing an unearned run in the team’s 6-1 semifi-nal win over third-seeded Pinelands. The run ended a 46.1 inning OCT scoreless streak for Weed that dated back to the 2011 semifinals against Jackson Memo-rial. Weed also flirted with the tourna-ment strikeout record, finishing two short of the 55-strikeout mark established by New Egypt’s Emily Bausher in 2010.

“Jordan has been doing a great job for us all year,” said TR East coach Debbie Schwartz. “I think that was highlighted by her performance in the tournament.”

said. “Dodge, pass, pass; you keep do-ing that you’re going break down the defense, get open, and score.”

Shea got a third quarter hat trick to put the one-side game away, with three-third period scores and an 11-goal lead, 14-3. Shea’s three goals gave him five for the game, to go along with an assist.

“This is awesome, words can’t describe it,” Shea said. “We just made Shore Conference history, I’m glad to be part of it. I just went into the game with an open mind and the shots fell. I have to thank my coaches and my other two at-tackers, Dom (Padula) and Clarky (Mi-chael Clark) and the mids (midfielders) for getting me the ball. Our goalie (se-nior Dylan Rotchford) and defense were shut-down good today. It’s all about the team, not me.”

Padula ended with two goals and four assists, while Clark added two goals and three assists.

“We came out hot, fired up and ready to play.” Clark said. “We’ve been here the last four years (5) and this was South-ern’s first; our experience helped us get off to a fast start. Our defense played lights out; we locked them down. I was on the team as a freshman when we lost and I told the team, ‘You don’t want that feeling, it’s the worst feeling in the world.’”

Southern scored two meaningless goals in the fourth period when the Bulldogs

were playing keep away for a 14-5 fi-nal. Brendan Mullen led Southern with three goals.

Junior defenseman Connor Phillips led the Bulldogs with six ground balls and along with senior Charlie Gravina (2 ground balls) and Jennings, they com-pletely shut-down Southern’s explosive offensive attack.

Rotchford, second in the Shore Con-ference in save percentage (.707) was phenomenal in the goal for the Bull-dogs, turning away 10 shots while di-recting traffic in front of the net.

“He’s a clutch, clutch player, Jackson said of Rotchford. “The composure that he’s put into this season is beyond me. Dylan played man-down defense for us last season. We needed a goalie this season, he volunteered and the rest is history.”

“I’m so proud of this team,”Jackson said. “It’s pretty exciting when you think of what they’ve accomplished. But you know what makes this a great team is our bench. All the guys you don’t see go on the field are the guys in practice ev-ery day that make everyone better, it’s the biggest advantage we have.”

Rumson, the No.1 seed in the NJSIAA Group 1 South playoffs will square off against No.16 seed Delran, Saturday, May 18.

BULLDOGS MAUL RAMS FOR THIRD STRAIGHT SHORE CONFERENCE LACROSSE TITLEContinued from page 3

TOMS RIVER— The Toms River North base-ball team needed to exorcise some demons against Jackson Memorial. What better time to do it than in the Ocean County Tourna-ment championship game? The Mariners broke a nine-game losing streak to the Jaguars with a 2-0 victory to take the OCT crown. TR North received stellar pitching from starter Ron Marinaccio and reliever Steve Slagmolen. Of course, lights-out pitching has become the calling card for the Mariners who did not allow a single run in the tournament.

Marinaccio and Slagmolen combined for a two-hitter while striking out 10 batters. Sl-agmolen entered some trouble in the final inning with the Mariners holding onto their two-run lead. He walked the first three bat-ters but fired back to strike out Nick Dabrio and power hitting catch Matt Thais. Slag-molen then got a ground ball out to end the game and preserve the win. The offense was not exactly pretty for the Mariners as

they took advantage of two Jackson Me-morial errors. Shortstop Carmen Sclafani plated home the second round with an RBI single in the fourth inning.

“We lost to Jackson Memorial three times last year and in the Shore Conference Tour-nament final so we want to get them back,” said pitcher Karl Blum before the sea-son started. Blum pitched a shutout in TR North’s 1-0 win over Monsignor Donovan in the OCT semifinals.

On Friday, the Mariners won 5-3 over Cen-tral Regional to advance to the SCT quar-terfinals. Jordan Silvestri was 3 for 3 with two RBIs and Slagmolen earned the win. TR North will also get ready for the South Jer-sey Group IV tournament. They are seeded 8th and will take on 9th seed Cherokee in the opening round. The winner will play ei-ther top seeded Eastern or 16th seed Mill-ville in the second round.

The Manasquan softball team is 13 and 9 this season and they are coming off of a tough 2 to 0 loss in the first round of the Shore Conference Tournament to Cen-tral Regional, but they will quickly try and prepare for their first round game in the NJSIAA state playoffs. They will face Mon-mouth Regional who they have played twice already this season and have lost to both times in extra innings by a single run. The

Warriors have played tough defense all season long and when they get some de-cent pitching and a little hitting they can win some games. When they face off against Monmouth Regional, Coach Certo knows it will take continued solid defense and more for the

victory. She said, “This is the third time we are playing them this year and after two disappointing losses we need to, and can prove, that we can beat them”.

Manasquan has been led all season long on the mound by Olivia Galinif, who has 13 wins pitching this season. She has also helped with her offense, as from the plate she is batting .385 with a home run and

two doubles. Shakyra Moore is leading the way offensively with a .469 batting average and she leads the team in home runs with 8 and runs bat-ted in with 18. Quinn Sato is the leadoff hitter and has done a great job of getting on base all season long. She leads the team in doubles with 7 and triples with 6. She also has 17 runs batted in. Ally Latouretteis bat-ting .369 and has 15

runs batted in while Megan Gilly is batting .371 with 2 doubles. Cate Marotta is bat-ting ,371 and has 5 doubles. Coach Certo said, “This is a young team but they work hard everyday in practice and play solid defense. If we do that we can and will win some games”.

Jennings made her presence felt all day, playing a tremendous game at both ends of the field.

Red Bank Catholic finally broke through in the second half as junior Maeve Cow-ley scored at 9:21 but Rumson came right back as Scarrone netted her fourth goal of the game to push the lead to 12-7 at 6:22.

The Caseys tried to make it a game, scor-ing two quick goals to close the gap to 12-9 with four minutes to play. But the Bulldogs essentially ended it, scoring a minute later when senior Emily Hayes took a Scarrone pass in the left wing about twenty yards out, spun and fired a shot, beating the goalie high and to her left with 3:46 remaining.

Freshman midfielder Jillian Swikart closed out the scoring with under a minute to play, for a 14-5 final.

After losing in the SCT semifinals last year, the Bulldogs more than made up for it Friday.

“The loss in the semifinals last year should not have happened,” Curran said. “That was more of a mental loss for us, this year we just came out more focused on what we had to do.”

“Our team is ecstatic, we’re just so hap-py,” Scarrone said. “We knew RBC was the defending champs and we just want-ed that title back. They’re a great team; we had to play our best to beat them.”

“This feels super,” O’Keefe said. “It’s well deserved; they worked so hard for this and played awesome. They’re just a great group of kids; I love this team to death.”

This was the Bulldogs sixth appearance in the Shore Conference Tournament fi-nals and their second title, both under O’Keefe.

JERSEY SHORE— The Tournament of Champions is set for boys’ and girls’ golf on Monday and Thursday respectively. The Shore Conference is well represented on both sides thanks to a strong perfor-mance by the local teams in the NJSIAA sectional tournaments. Five boys’ teams won championships.

At Mountain View Golf Course in Ewing, two Shore Conference schools came away with sectional titles. CBA took the Non-Public A crown by a 10-stroke margin. Patrick Hussey was the top shooter for the Colts and top individual in the sectional. St. Rose won the Central-South Non-Public B title as Tommy Burns finished tied for second individually. Rumson-Fair Haven won the Central-South Group II championship at Wildwood Country Club in Cape May Courthouse as John Edler shot a 76 to also take first place. Wall Township surprised some with a victory in Central-South Group III at Running Deer Golf Club in Pittsgrove. Senior Connor Birch qualified for the TOC with his per-formance. Howell’s Dawson Jones won his second straight Central-South Group IV championship and the Rebels also fin-ished first. Southern Regional’s Jakson Fiel also qualified for the TOC.

On the girls’ side, no team won a section-al title; however, Red Bank Catholic came closest by finishing two strokes behind Montgomery for second place. Holmdel and Rumson-Fair Haven also qualified as teams for the TOC. RBC senior Taylor Totland was the top individual though, as she edged out Montgomery’s Alice Chen by one shot. She will try to defend her in-dividual TOC championship on Thursday at Cherry Valley in Skillman.

Golfers Ready for TOCBy Ted Kaiser

LINCROFT - Despite being rated high in the pre season polls, Christian Brothers Academy's baseball team got off to a slow start, splitting its first six games, includ-ing a 7-1 loss to rival Red Bank Catholic. The setback to RBC evened CBA's record at 3-3, but since then, the Colts have been on a roll with Thursday's 11-1 rout of Howell in a quarterfinal game of the Monmouth County Tournament extend-ing their win streak to 13. The game was stopped in the last of the fifth because of the Mercy Rule.

"The weather set us back a bit," said CBA coach Marty Kenney, who won his 500th game several weekends ago. "We had to practice on the parking lot as the field was unplayable. We had hoped to get on the field for one or two weeks. I knew that we would be good coming into the season because we had a lot of guys that played last year and did well," said Kenney.

"We didn't play that badly in the begin-ning," he said. "RBC just beat us, but

we could have won our other two loss-es (Middletown South and Howell)."

Freshman pitcher, Luca Dalati, and senior first baseman, Joe Dudek, were the stars of the game with Dalata allowing two hits, both in the first inning, fanning nine while walking just one batter. Dudek, who will be playing at North Carolina next season, got CBA off to a fast start with a three-run homer in the first inning.

Howell scored its lone run in the first in-ning when John Reizer led off by beating out an infield hit, stealing second and scoring on a base hit by Cody Hubbs. Dalati, though, settled down and retired 14 of the final 15 batters, allowing only a third inning walk to Howell's Ryan Wares.

"My timing was off a little bit in the first," said Dalati, "but I made a couple of ad-justments between innings and that fixed it up. My fastball was my best pitch today, but I can also set it up with some other

pitches."

CBA quickly went ahead with three runs in its’ half of the first on singles by Ryan Ramiz and Anthoiny Critelli and Dudek's homer over the right field fence."It was a fast ball," said Dudek. "It came on a 2-0 count and I was looking for it. Everything is going well, and I feel good at the plate. I chose North Carolina be-cause it is a great academic institution and has a fine baseball program."

CBA picked up two more runs in both the second and third innings and won the game with four runs in the fifth with Will Morgan's base-loaded single ending the game.

CBA's win streak, however, came to an end Friday in the semifinals when Wall upset the Colts, 7-5, in eight innings. Wall will play top-seeded Red BanK Catholic Tuesday in the title game at First Energy Park in Lakewood.

The St. Rose baseball team is having a fan-tastic season with a 17 and 3 record. The Purple Roses have also earned the #1 seed in the NJSIAA South Non Public B bracket of the state playoffs and will play the winner of a first round game between Roselle Catholic (9th seed) and St. Josephs (8th seed). Also St. Rose plays Jackson Liberty in the Shore Conference Tournament as the Purple Roses are the #10 seed.

In a recent game against Manasquan the Purple Roses defeated the Warriors by the score of 8 to 3. Jim Gowen earned his fourth win on the mound scattering 8 hits in the game while Brendan Lynch and Brad Currao both doubled for St Rose. The win improved their record to 18 and 3. In an-

other game against Point Boro, St Rose won 13 to 3 when Joey DeLacruz threw a com-plete game 4 hitter on the mound while also providing some offense going 3 for 3 from the plate with a double and 4 runs batted in. St Rose also defeated Keyport by the score of 9 to 7. Jay Criscuolo got the win on the mound while Brad Currao went 4 for 5 from the plate with 2 runs batted in and a double.

On the season Currao has a 3-1 pitching record in 31 innings pitched and 29 strike-outs and a 1.55 earned run average. At the plate he is batting .328 this season with 18 runs batted in. DeLacruz is batting .359 this season and as a pitcher he has a 3-1 re-cord. In 31 innings he has 24 strikeouts and a 2.50 earned run average. Connor Gam-ond is batting .453 with 24 hits, which leads the team. Will King is batting .439 and Brandon Lynch is hitting .328 in the leadoff spot. Gowen now has a 4-0 pitching record in 26 innings with 27 strikeouts.

Head coach Mike Condon likes the way his team has prepared and game planned this season and said, " For the most part we have been able to focus on what we can control and try and keep things simple. That formula seems to be working this season ".

Purple Roses Baseball 18 and 3By Michael Rogers

MIDDLETOWN— The Lions got off to a roaring start in the first round of the Shore Conference Tournament in soft-ball. Middletown North, seeded 10th, dominated 23rd seed St. Rose with a 12-0 victory in five innings last Satur-day. Pitcher Amanda Kanskishut down the Purple Roses while the offense rose to the occasion. Quinn Thornton had three hits and two RBIs. The win showed the strength of the Class A North Di-vision where the Lions finished in a three-way tie for first place. In fact, the division was so competitive that four different teams could have come out on top heading into the final game. Now the victory sets up a contest between two familiar foes in Middletown North and 7th seed Howell in the SCT Round of 16. It was a solid win, perhaps energized

by North’s two non-divisional losses last week. The Lions struggled to score runs against top opponents Ocean and Wall in tune-up games last Mon-day and Thursday. They fell 1-0 to the Spartans as pitcher Gianna Kinhofer silence their bats. They began to show glimpses of offense in a 5-1 loss to Wall as they were able to a muster a home run. The games were only a partial test as the Lions used the opportunity to get some other players into the lineup. North will also have to begin focusing on the Central Jersey Group III state tournament starting this week. They are seeded 5th and will face 12th seed Lawrence in the opening round. The winner will square off against either 4th seeded Allentown or 13th seeded Colts Neck.

The Christian Brothers Academy Colts’ lacrosse team enters the 2013 NJSIAA State Tournament as the No. 8 seed in the Non-Public A South por-tion of the bracket after going 12-6 in the regular season. The Colts open up state tournament play at home against ninth-seeded Pope John on Saturday, May 18th at 12:30. If the Colts can get the victory at home, they will face their archnemesis and top-seeded Delbarton in the sectional quarterfinals.

With the regular season complete, the Colts have had a solid 2013 season so far. After opening the season with an easy victory over Long Branch, the Colts slipped up against the Hornets of Holmdel on the road by a score of 7-6. How-ever, the Colts rebounded nicely and pulled off three straight wins against Neptune, Freehold Town-ship, and Howell.

CBA’s first big test of the season came against their conference ri-val Rumson-Fair Haven on the road, and the Bulldogs overpow-ered the Colts 8-3 and showed them why they are one of the best in the Shore Conference. However,

once again, the Colts showed that they could bounce back from a tough loss, and rattled off another three game win streak against the likes of Marlboro, Colts Neck, and Wall.

But after their three-game win streak, the Colts now had the challenge of winning two games against two very good non-conference foes. Their

first challenge came against Non-Public A foe Don Bosco Prep, the No. 2 ranked team in New Jersey, and the Colts were taken down 16-7 by the Ironmen. Following the loss to Don Bosco Prep, the Colts fell short against Princeton by a score of 10-9.

Before the Shore Conference Tour-nament began, the Colts finished

the regular season on a four-game winning streak, including their most notable win of the season against archrival Red Bank Catholic at home by a score of 7-6. In the victory against the Caseys of RBC, attack-men Thomas Deiner and Dan Cam-marata each had a hat trick to pro-pel the Colts. The other three wins to close out the regular season for CBA

came against Ocean Township, Red Bank, and Brick.

After receiving a first round bye for the SCT, the Colts drew Hol-mdel in a rematch from earlier in the season. The Colts were able to get revenge back for their early season loss to the Hornets when it mattered most by knocking off Holmdel in the SCT Quarterfinals 9-8. How-ever, the Colts were trampled by top-seeded Southern in the SCT Semifinals by a score of 10-3 to end the Colts’ goal of winning the Shore Conference title in 2013. Now that their regular season and conference tournament are complete, the CBA Colts look to bring home a Non-Public A state title back to Lincroft.
