2008- 25 wins, 6 losses; Shore Conference Champions (48 schools), Ocean County Tournament Champions (18 schools); ranked #1 at the Jersey Shore by the Asbury Park Press and other publications.
OUTLOOK FOR 2009: Pitching and Tradition are our strengths although we did lose two key starting pitchers and two Division I players (in Ryan Kapp (Rutgers) and Chase Gray (Seton Hall). We also lost key players in infielder John Coppinger & catcher Brian Chrashewsky (Montclair St.), however we expect with pitchers - rightyTyler Gebler (Rutgers signee) and junior lefty Andy McGee - we should be right in contention for every title and tournament.
