The only thing that stopped Pierce Coppola from throwing a no-hitter Monday night was the state-mandated pitch limit.

Coppola struck out 17 batters and allowed no hits through 6 and 2/3 innings before reaching the 110-pitch limit and exiting with one batter left to go. Kyle McCaffery went 1-3 with an RBI and scored three runs to pace an offense that aided in a 4-0 win over longtime rival Cedar Grove.
