Opening Day Win...

TR South 4, Mt. Carmel (PA) 1: Senior righthander Evan Bigler struck out 10, scattered 6 hits and walked none as he pitched the Indians to an opening day victory at Toms River North as part of the TR Regional Schools Spring Sports Festival.

After allowing a second inning run, Bigler was able to blank the Tornadoes (1-1) over the final five innings of the game. Offensively, South tied the game in the third when senior Jared Tromatula scored on a two-out infield single by senior Rick Petrosino.

South (1-0) exploded for three runs in the fifth when sophomore Chase Gray scored on a throwing error and senior pinch runner Tim O'Brien scored on a long double by junior Mark Perry. Perry later scored on a throwing error as well.

South will take on TR East on Tuesday at 3:45 p.m.
