Council Rock North coach Matt Schram:
“Great team win today, 7–3 over a really tough and always well-coached Perkiomen Valley squad.”
–Props: “Jude Hamilton was outstanding on the mound, going four strong innings with 0 walks and three strikeouts, really commanding the strike zone and keeping hitters off balance all day.
“Out of the bullpen, Cam Reinhardt and Tommy Ferro were lights out—pounding the zone, competing every pitch, and shutting the door. Ferro came in and earned the save. Preston Martin had a good day on offense going 2-4.”

Highlights of the three-run third included a double by Mason Eagland, a sacrifice fly by Michael Bongard and an RBI single by Dominic Criscuolo.
In the nine-run sixth, Dan Molony doubled in a pair, and Mason Eagland hit a triple that plated two more. Lucas Fresta had a two-run single, and Brody Stump hit an RBI single.
Mason Eagland’s three RBIs led PW. His double and triple led the Colonials’ hit parade.
By the numbers: Plymouth Whitemarsh: Mason Eagland (2-for-3, 2B, 3B, 3 RBIs, 2R), Brody Stump (3-for-3, 2B, 1RBI, 2R), Dan Molony (3-for-4, 2B, 2 RBIs, 3R), Max Eagland (1-for-1, 2RBI), Lucas Fresta (1-for-2, 2 RBIs).
Bobby Pasquarello (3.1 IP, 2H, 2R, 0ER, 3BB), Max Eagland (2.2 IP, 1H, 0R, 1BB, 4K)
Plymouth Whitemarsh coach Chris Manero:
“We got off to a shaky start in the first inning today, but we were able to minimize damage and give our bats a chance to get us back in the game.”
–Props: “I can’t say enough about Max’s performance out of the bullpen. He will mostly start games this season, but we had the rare opportunity to use him in relief today and everything was working for him. He pitched out of a bases loaded jam and pitched really tough against some big bats in their lineup.
“Mason Eagland, Brody Stump, and Dan Molony each had a big day at the plate, and we hope that is a sign of how we can spread hits throughout the lineup.”
Up next: Plymouth Whitemarsh will host Souderton Wednesday in a non-league contest.
