Game Summary
Richards high school had jumped to an early lead which was taken very quickly in the fourth inning for a hungry Marist team who had gained motivation and momentum, and did not let off the brakes and the Richards bullpen arms could not contain Marist or do what their Ace, Luis De Avila was able to do.
