Cheshire Academy had to travel to play their first game of the season, but the final result was worth the trip. They came out on top in a nail-biter against the Pennington Red Hawks on Sunday, sneaking past 12-11.
Tyler Stone was a major factor while hitting and pitching. On the mound, he struck out six batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and only one walk). Stone was also stellar in the batter's box, going a perfect 2-for-2 with five RBI, one run, and one double.
In other pitching news, Noah Kalarickal looked comfortable as he pitched two innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit.
Back at the plate, Jason Dewitt was excellent, scoring two runs while going 2-for-3. Conner Crosbie was another key player, scoring a run while getting on base in three of his four plate appearances.
Looking ahead, Cheshire Academy will challenge Freedom at 6:00 p.m. on Monday. Pennington will have a little extra prep time after the defeat as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on Hamilton at 12:00 p.m. on March 22nd.
