GAME REPORTS


COLTS NECK 10, MIDDLETOWN NORTH 0:
The Colts Neck High School baseball team is in the midst of a big week.
But, one would not know that by looking at the Cougars' players.
""They've been loose all week,'' said Colts Neck coach Mike Yorke. ""They've been laughing on the bus. They weren't stressed at all (Tuesday). Their confidence level is high and they are comfortable with each other. That's what's important.''
Colts Neck has easily cleared the first two hurdles of a week that will see it play six games in seven days.
It can clinch a tie for both the Class A North overall and public school championships Wednesday with a win at Christian Brothers Academy after it rolled to a 10-0 victory over Middletown North yesterday behind a one-hitter by junior right-hander Anthony DeSclafani.
""Somebody asked me how many in a row we have won, and all we keep saying is we've won one in a row,'' said Yorke, whose team has won six straight and is 11-3 overall and 9-2 in Class A North after wins over Manalapan and Middletown North the last two days.
""Sometimes, we as coaches tend to put a little too much pressure on the kids. These kids are handling it well.''
DeSclafani struck out nine, walked one and allowed just a single in the second inning.
Senior shortstop A.J. Rusbarsky went 3-for-3 with an RBI and two runs scored. Dom Hayes, Joe DeNora and Mickey Shaw all had two hits and Ethan Jackson stroked a two-run double in the fourth. Seven different players had RBI as the Cougars avenged an earlier 4-0 loss to Middletown North.
Yorke said that senior left-hander Dom Hayes (1-2) will start Wednesday. CBA defeated Colts Neck, 6-2, in the first meeting between the two teams.
