MATAWAN 8, MONMOUTH 0:There hasn't all that much to cheer about for the Matawan Regional High School baseball team this season. But the Huskies had to be in a a cheering mood Saturday.

Junior right-hander J.D. Melendez hurled a five-hitter and struck out five in an 8-0 Shore Conference Class B North win for Matawan (2-6, 2-4) over Monmouth Regional (5-3, 4-2), ranked No. 7 in the Asbury Park Press Top 10 Poll.

""It's a good win, we were scuffling a little bit,'' said John Kaye, Matawan coach.

""J.D. was able to locate and threw all his pithes for strikes,'' said Kaye. ""He was ahead in the count most all day.''

Matawan sealed the game with a seven-run third inning. It included a three-run double by Rich Vitaliano, a two-run single by Matt Buragina, and an RBI single by Nick Citro.
Melendez went 2-for-4 with an RBI single in the first inning and Bruce Monroe 2-for-3 with two singles.
""This does a lot for our confidence but if our pitchers throw strikes we can glove the the ball with anybody,'' Kaye said.

Matawan moved to Class B North this season from Class A Central where it now faces somewhat larger schools.

""The first time around was tough in that we were not really familiar with our opponents,'' said Kaye. Monmouth won the first meeting this season, 7-3.

""A Central is a good division,'' Kaye said. ""The teams are good. We just haven't played well to date.

""Maybe with the warm weather we'll get it going.''
