Red Bank Catholic 10 Holmdel 5
RBC came from behind twice to prevent an upset and complete a two game sweep of their Shore Conference divisional foe. The Hornets raced out to a 3-0 lead sparked by an Ezra Caspi two run homer in the first and then staked out to a 5-4 advantage in the 5th following a two run single by Brett Hilscheimer. But RBC scored two in the bottom of the 5th to take the lead and tacked on four runs in the 6th highlighted by a two run bomb courtesy of Ryan O’Hara.
