Trojans Trounce Indians!

After an unprecedented winter that recorded record snowfall in the north east and 309 days off, the Trojans highly anticipated season finally commenced. The Trojans jumped out to an early 1-0 record defeating the Dartmouth Indians 11-0 in early Old Colony League action in Dartmouth.
Sophomore Colin Trahon (single) was knocked in by Sr. Captain Cory Wasylow to start the rout.  The Trojans hot start continued as they pounded out 6 straight hits in the top of the 2nd taking a 6-0 lead.  Sr. first baseman Paul Lefond led the offensive drive going 2-2, with 2 doubles and 2 RBI's and a BB.
Junior southpaw Mikey Manning shut down the Indians throwing 85 pitches in 5 INN of work with 8 K's and allowing 4 walks. The Trojans played flawless defense and had no errors!
Jr. Alex McGrath finished off the Indians throwing only 25 pitches in the final 2 frames striking out 3 and the Trojans rolled to an 11-0 victory.
Coach Kearney on the win "Good start to the season - 14 hits offensively and error free defense combined with good pitching by Mike Manning and Alex McGrath."
The Trojans continue OCL play on Thursday against Barnstable at Hank Pearson Field as Sr Captain Jack Connolly gets his first start of the year. Connolly, a returning ESPN All State pick, hopes to return to his winning ways of 2014, as he had a "career year" as he went 9-2 with 94 strike outs in 65 innings and a 1.51 ERA.
