BR Trounces Lincoln Sudbury 19-4

The Trojans opened Super 8 play with a bang, as they hosted the Lincoln Sudbury Warriors at Hank Pearson Field in the opening round play of the MIAA Division 1A "Super 8" tournament and rolled to a 19-4 run rule shortened 8 inning affair.



The Trojans jumped out to an early in the bottom of the 1st taking advantage of some shaky LS pitching  as 3 walks, a hit batsman, and a Connor Sullivan FC RBI would put the Trojans on top 2-0.  The Warriors would answer in the top of the 2nd scoring 1 run on 2 hits and a walk to make it 2-1. The trojans piled on 3 more runs on hits by Corey Dinunno, a 2 RBI double by Noviello, and he would score on an RBI single by Freiday to make it 5-1. The Trojans added a run in the 4th, but would break the game wide open in the bottom of the 6th scoring 5 runs as they batted around the order on hits by Joe Freiday, an RBI single by Connor Sullivan, a Jack Connolly RBI single, a Tyler Carey sac fly, and a Corey Dinunno RBI single, making it 11-1.
The Trojans would bat around the order again in the bottom of the 7th and would end the game in the 8th as they pounded the LS pitching staff scoring 19 runs on 16 hits as they took advantage of the 11 walks and 5 hit batsmen.
The story of the day is the fabulous 2 way performance by the Umaine commit Junior Andrew Noviello as he pithed 7 innings with 8 K's allowing only 3 walks and went 3 for 3 at the plate with 2 doubles a single and 5 RBI's.  Other offensive standouts were jonathan Livolsi (3 for 5 with 2 doubles 1 RBI), Senior Captain Joe Freiday (3 for 4 with a double and 2 RBI's), as well as Connor Sullivan, Jack Connolly, and Corey Dinunno had multiple hits.

The Trojans will rest up tonight and get ready for the next round of play as they travel to Campanelli stadium to face off against St Johns Prep on Saturday at Noon!
