Class A South

No. 10 Point Beach 14, No. 2 Brick Memorial 12

Tommy Conroy led off the third inning with a single and capped an eight-run outburst in the inning with a two-run homer as the Garnet Gulls erased another early deficit to complete a sweep of the reigning division champion Mustangs.

Dan Lubach and Brody Powers hit back-to-back RBI singles in the top of the third to cut Brick Memorial’s lead t0 6-3 and Point Beach’s two pitchers on Wednesday — winning pitcher Antonio Acevedo and starter Thomas Slobiski — hit back-to-back two-run doubles to catapult the Garnet Gulls into the lead, 7-6. Brick Memorial finally recorded the first two outs of the inning, but Conroy got one more punch in with his two-run home run to rightfield to make it 9-6.

Brick Memorial twice pulled within a run, first at 9-8 in the bottom of the fourth and again with a three-run fifth inning that answered three runs by Point Beach in the top of the frame. Matt McGlynn hit an RBI single for the first run of the fifth, Tyler Garbooshian plated a run with a sacrifice fly and Trevor Kish came through with a two-out RBI single to cut Point Beach’s lead to 12-11.

Both Michael Figner of Brick Memorial and Acevedo pitched scoreless sixth innings to calm the game down, but Point Beach mounted a two-out rally in the top of the seventh that yielded two insurance runs. Conroy singled with one out and Lubach extended the threat with a two-out walk, setting up an RBI singles by Brody Powers and Carson Pfeifer to extend the lead to 14-11.

Dan Golembiewski — who homered twice in Monday’s 11-10 loss to Point Beach — led off the bottom of the seventh with a single and scored with one out on Joe McGlynn’s third hit of the game. That forced Acevedo to face the tying run with one out and he responded with two strikeouts to end the game.

Brody Moore drove in a run in the first and added a two-run homer to cap a five-run second for Brick Memorial.

Jackson 7, No. 6 Toms River East 6

Carney O’Donnell’s third RBI of the game came on a tie-breaking RBI single that capped a four-run fourth for Jackson and sent the Jaguars to a win over the Raiders, further tightening the Class A South division race.

Sophomore Michael Fogarty cashed in with a two-run single in the fourth to pull Jackson within 6-5 and a misplayed line drive off the bat of Charliey Bunchinsky plated the tying run. O’Donnell then scalded a single to leftfield to score Fogarty with the go-ahead run and right-hander Caden Rathbauer was lights-out over the final seven outs to earn his second save.

Lucas Melton gave Toms River East an early 1-o lead with a solo home run in the top of the first, then smoked a bases-clearing double in the top of the fourth that broke a 3-3 tie and put the Raiders ahead, 6-3. One inning earlier, sophomore Carson Frazier hit a two-run single to put Toms River East ahead, 3-1, before O’Donnell countered with game-tying two-run double in the bottom of the third.

No. 3 Wall 8, Southern 7

John Catanio doubled with none out in the bottom of the seventh and scored the winning run on a bases-loaded walk to Luke Dana that gave the Crimson Knights a walk-off win over the Rams after Wall beat Southern in eight innings to open the week.

Chris Knight was hit by a pitch to open the bottom of the seventh — the fourth time in four trips to the plate in which Knight reached base. Catanio then connected on his double to left, which put runners on second and third before Southern opted to intentionally walk Frank Soos to load the bases with none out.

Colton Oravets fielded a ground ball off the bat of Will Hague and threw home to Elias Gonzales for the force out that kept Southern alive for the moment. Dana then stepped in and took a 3-1 pitch off the plate to score Catanio with the winning run.

Gonzales hit the game-tying RBI single with two out in the top of the seventh as Southern plated four runs in the seventh to send the game to extra innings. Nolan Nitahara drove in a run in both the sixth and seventh innings, first cutting Southern’s deficit to 7-3 with an RBI single in the sixth and then a bases-loaded walk ahead of the tying hit by Gonzales. Losing pitcher Ryan Dietrich also delivered a run-scoring single in the four-run seventh for Southern.

Class B South

Toms River North 11, Brick 9

Owen Stefan cleared the bases with a three-run double in Toms River North’s five-run first, then added run scoring hits in both the second and third innings to give him six RBI and the Mariners a fifth straight win in a sweep-clinching victory over the Green Dragons.

Bryce Kazanowsky added a two-run double in the first and Vinny Vergona stung a two-run single in the bottom of the third after Brick broke onto the scoreboard in the top of the inning on a home run by Brayden Heatter. Zach Martin hit a two-run home run to pull Brick within 11-5 in the fourth and cut the deficit to 11-9 with an RBI double in the top of the fifth.

Ian St. Luce took over on the mound for Toms River North with the tying run at the plate for Brick and none out and wiggled out of the fifth inning with the lead intact. Brick stranded a pair of runners in both the sixth and seventh innings as well against St. Luce, who earned his second win in relief during the Toms River North winning streak.

Point Boro 7, Manasquan 1

Jake Clayton and Aidan Dombrowsky hit back-to-back home runs in the fifth inning after Dombrowsky gave Point Boro four solid innings for his third win as the Panthers salvaged a split with the Warriors after Manasquan won game one on Monday.

Manasquan struck first on an RBI single by Liam Opatosky in the top of the first inning before Dombrowsky settled in to spin three scoreless innings following the rn in the first. Mike Metcalfe made a winner of Dombrowsky by hitting a tie-breaking RBI single in the bottom of the fourth, giving Point Boro a 2-1 lead.

St. Rose 7, Lacey 6

Logan Resetar ripped a bases-loaded single on a 3-2 count with two out in the top of the seventh inning and Lacey attempted to score the tying run all the way from first, but the Purple Roses completed a relay to cut down Russell Davies at the plate for the final out of a thrilling win over the Lions.

St. Rose jumped out to a 2-0 lead on a sacrifice fly by winning pitcher James Alesso and a wild pitch in the first inning and built up a 7-1 lead thanks to a four-run fifth that featured three consecutive two-out hits that drove in the four runs. Catcher Lucas Ferlise ripped an RBI double down the leftfield line for a 5-1 lead, Mike Yorke followed with an RBI single and Ryan McCarthy made it 7-1 with an RBI double to the fence in leftfield.

Resetar drove in the first Lacey run with an RBI single in the fourth that made the scored 3-1 and delivered a two-run home run in the top of the sixth that pulled the Lions within 7-4 and knocked Alesso out of the game. One batter prior to the home run, Joe Geiger singled home Lacey’s second run.

Nick Ferrante recorded the final out of the sixth and returned to the mound for the top of the seventh with St. Rose still ahead, 7-4. First baseman Joe Loschiavo dug out a low throw for the first out of the inning, then three straight Lacey batters reached — two singles by Brayden Messina and Davies that book-ended Ferrante hitting Evan Greenberg with a pitch.

Ferrante picked up a crucial strikeout on a 3-2 pitch for the second out, then went 3-2 again to Resetar, who was already working with three RBI heading into the at-bat. With the runners off with the pitch, Resetar scalded a single to centerfield, easily scoring Messina and Greenberg. A bobble in centerfield prompted Lacey coach Adam Taha to send Davies to the plate and Loschiavo made his second big defensive play of the inning when he took the relay from centerfielder Tristan Ferlise and calmly fired the ball to Lucas Ferlise at home plate, where he stood his ground and made the tag on an upright Davies.
