"We came out today and didn't play scared" Head Coach Evan Horn said, "They (FW) jumped out to a quick 2-0 lead and we didn't let it affect us. We came right back with a 3 spot when J-Poc (Pocrass) hit a homer"
Coach Horn was quick to point out the great relief job Sean Weiss did as he
cruised through 4 innings while only allowing one base runner.
"He did a great job today he really did. He doesn't over power you but he
does really keep the ball low and hits spots" Horn, who also seconds as a
Varsity Assistant coach for William Tennent High School, continued "I really
didn't know what to expect but I was very pleased"
After HV took the 3-2 heading into the second inning they didn't really put
the game out of reach until the home 4th when they plated 3 runs. Peter Ebert
started the inning with a gapping triple and scored on a single by Callan
Palmer. Callan Palmer was then knocked in by his twin brother Lewis Palmer's
single. The scoring ended when Jack Titus was hit by a pitch to score Lewis
Palmer which put the score at 7-3. HV scored 2 more runs in the home 6th when
Matt Meyers tripled in Lewis Palmer and Pocrass hit a long sacrifice fly to
plate Meyers.
"We made the most of our hits today and seemed to get the big hit when
needed" Horn said "Its great to get production out of the new players on the
team this season such as Peter (Ebert), Nick Cerruti and Sean (Weiss). Every
year you have a turnover of players and every year you don't know what to expect
but one thing I can say is that no matter who is new they will quickly learn
that this coaching staff will believe in them"
HV has a big week coming up with a home game against The Morelanders on
Thursday followed by a road game Saturday at Southampton and a doubleheader on
Sunday against Warminster.
