Baseball Starts Parents Weekend With A Win

The baseball team took the field to start off the Parents Weekend activities and beat Central Maine Community College.

While the team was initially down 1-0 to CMCC, they turned things around for a big 2-1 win. Harry Knowles (Seabrook, NH) had two hits for the day, including the game winner. Knowles also put BA on the board as he scored the game tying run. Tanner Chase (York, ME) scored the go ahead run after a clutch steal of third base. Ben Callahan (Exeter, NH), Knowles, and Christian Lavoie (Hopkinton, MA) combined to limit Central Maine Community College to only 1 run over seven innings.

It was a big win after losing to CMCC earlier in the season. "We played a complete baseball game today. We had an outstanding pitching effort on the mound from Ben Callahan, followed with strong work out of the bullpen by Harry & Christian. Any time you can win a ball game 2-1, you played well. I thought we took care of the ball defensively, and did the right things offensively against a quality sophomore pitcher at CMCC. I'm proud of the way the guys played the game today, and excited to start parent's weekend with a win," said Coach Izaryk.

The team will take the field next as they travel to the University of New England to play at 7:00 PM on Wednesday October 13th.
