April 9, 2008 – J.P. Stevens 5, East Brunswick 3
blasted a two run homer in the top of the 7th inning to break a 3-3 tie. The game started off rough for the Bears when the
Hawks opened the scoring with a two run home run, but cut the deficit to one when Sheena McCarthy scored off an error. The Hawks
then scored again to gain a two run lead. Sheena McCarthy and Samantha Ur hit back to back RBI singles in the 6th to tie up the game and
the Bears had a great opportunity for more with the bases loaded and no outs, but a double play and a pop up ended that opportunity.
East Brunswick is now 3-2 for the season.
