In the first game it was senior Jeff Andersen who dominated for 7.1 innings, allowing only six hits and one walk while striking out three.

The run stood up as the Panthers gave the ball to Dillon McNamara who continued his incredible scoreless streak of 2013 and saved his seventh game of the year with 1.2 shutout innings.

It was a bit of a peculiar lineup, but it certainly paid off. The Panthe...

Photo Credit: College Baseball Today Move over Johnny Vander Meer, you have company. Matt Crohan, a senior at Riverhead High School began the season by tossing a no-hitter with 15 strikeouts against one of the top offenses in Suffolk County; East Islip. Most pitchers would’ve been satisfied with that outcome, but Crohan is not like most pitchers. The Jamesport native raised the bar with today’s performance in which he no-hit League-IV rival Centereach and added 18 strikeouts. That feat has only been accomplished in the Major Leagues once and it was in 1938 by Vander Meer. For those keeping score at home, that is 14 hitless innings with 33 strikeouts to begin his season year. In order words, he has already put himself in contention for the coveted Carl Yastrzemski Award which is...
