Baseball and Boys Tennis with Big Tourney Upsets!

After both the girls and boys Lacrosse teams bowed out of the state tournament with hard-fought defeats, earlier this week, the Baseball and Boys Tennis teams headed into today as the final two Bulldog teams alive in the 2016 spring season.   They are both still alive tonight!

The #13 seeded Boys Tennis team earned its first tourney win in more than a decade with a 3-2 win over #4 seeded Dighton-Rehoboth. Winning matches for the Bulldogs were Jake Wolicki at 2nd singles (6-1, 4-6, 6-3), Nate Maltz at 3rd singles (4-6, 6-3, 6-4) and Dan Biggers/Sean Meenan at 2nd doubles (6-0, 6-4).

The #14 seeded Baseball team extended their streak of dramatic 1st round tourney games to two years in-a-row as the squad took nine innings to upset #3 seeded Middleboro, 1-0 and advance to the Sectional Quarters. Kevin Powers pitched the complete game shutout. Jim Jenkins was 2-4 including a double in the top of the 9th before scoring the game-winning run. Joe Peccia made three putouts and nine assists. The TEAM made ZERO errors in the nine innings.
