O'Keeffe goes distance in no decision

The Hawks scored their lone run in the third inning when Mike Santosuosso singled, advanced to second on a wild pitch and scored on Eddie Frias single to right. O'Keeffe appeared to have pitched out of the only jam he was in all game inducing a Rebel batter to pop up with the bases loaded and two outs in the sixth inning, but a misplay of the ball tied the score at 1-1 for the Rebels. The Hawks battled for two more innings before darkness prevailed and the game ended in a league tie which awards both participants a point in the standings.

New Additions
The Hawks are pleased to announce the addition of four new players this season who look to make an immediate impact. Hawthorne H.S., Wagner College and Baltimore Oriole farmhand Joe DiGeronimo takes over at short and adds an explosive bat to the top half of the order. Outfielder Tim Thompson a member of last years undefeated state champion Don Bosco Prep team will add speed and depth to the Hawk outfield as well as offensive pop to the lineup. Pitchers Tim O'Sullivan (University of Quinnipiac ) and Mike O'Keeffe (University of Delaware) also members of last season's state champ Don Bosco team join a staff of proven veterans and add a devastating one two punch.
