Cardinal Newman beat Oak Ridge 10-0 in 5 innings yesterday at Oak Ridge.
@Streak One , Janicelli (UCSB) commit looked really good for Newman. I don't know he went distant because I left early but he had a 1 hitter going into the 4th. Newman doesn't have pitching as last year but I would say there bats are better. Really looked good offensively. Newman improves to 3-1 with only loss coming to undefeated and loaded Valley Christian.

CN lost a tough one today to Berkeley 3-2!…. Berkeley scored on an Error, Wild Pitch and Sac Fly and Their pitcher pitched a terrific game 7 innings, 7 hits and 9 k’s!…

CN had their chances getting the lead off runner on a few times and had 2 on and 1 out in the Bottom of 6 but they just couldn’t get the big hit!….. Even with that CN likely wins 2-1 without the E and WP…. Baseball is a tough game!…. 🤣

Congrats to Berkeley, they are a talented team!…..
