HOW IT HAPPENED
  • The Red Hawks (24-7, 6-4 NJAC) fell behind early, as the Cougars broke the scoring open in the first inning on an RBI double down the left field line. Montclair leveled the contest in the following frame as JOEY NOLAN singled to right center to drive in MARCUS JOHNSON.
  • With a runner on base, the Cougars answered in the bottom of the second inning on a home run to left field to make the score 3-1.
  • SAM ANGELO walked to lead off the sixth, and advanced to third later in the stanza on a double down the left field line by JASON MOORE. MARCUS JOHNSON flied out to left center during the next at-bat to plate Angelo and cut the margin to one.
