NJSIAA Tournament

Group Championships

At Rutgers University

Group III

Old Tappan 5, Brick Memorial 0

Senior right-hander and Columbia commit Selden Kolkebeck pitched his 12th complete game of the season, his third shutout of the NJSIAA Tournament and drove in the final two runs of the game to cap off his standout season and carry the Golden Knights to their first state championship since 2008 with a win over the Mustangs.

Brick Memorial Brody Moore struck out the first two batters of the game, but opened up a cut on the side of his left middle finger in the process. Kolkebeck then worked a nine-pitch walk that set the stage for Old Tappan to score the game’s first run on a wild pitch with two out.

Two infield errors led to two more Old Tappan runs in the top of the fourth inning, with both runs scoring on the second error. Kolkebeck provided himself further insurance with a two-out, two-run single in the top of the seventh inning.

Moore battled through five innings on 102 pitches, with only one of the three runs that cross the plate against him going down as earned runs. Junior left-hander Zach Pirnik pitched the final two innings six days after pitching a complete game vs. Delsea in the Group III semifinals.

Kolkebeck struck out Tyler Garbooshian in each of his first two at-bats, which snapped Garbooshian’s run of reaching on eight straight plate appearances heading into the game. Garbooshian led off the bottom of the sixth with a single and senior catcher Joe McGlynn followed with a two-out single to rightfield for his second hit of the game, but Kolkebeck stranded both runners. The senior right-hander then finished off his 92-pitch outing with a six-pitch seventh inning.

In 12 starts this season, Kolkebeck pitched 11 complete games and finished a perfect 12-0 with 126 strikeouts and 15 walks.
