On a brisk Friday evening, the Red/White World Series got underway. Zach Breault took the ball for the White Team and was dominant over the course of his 6 innings, allowing 1 run on 3 hits, receiving the win for his efforts. The bats for the White Team gave Breault the lead in the second inning after a big hit by Freshman Josh Harris, and followed that run with a 2-run home run by Senior Joseph Delrosario in the bottom of the third. That was all the run support Breault needed; Harris, combined with Junior left hander Tyson Latham, finished the final 3 innings for the White Team.

"We just couldn't get any offense going; [Breault] threw well and kept us off balance," stated Ryan Henn, a Senior captain for the Red Team. The Red Team threatened in the 5th and 6th innings, but
could only push one run across against the Junior right hander. Harris came into the game in the top of the 7th and did not allow a base-runner, striking out three. Red mustered some offense against Latham in the top of the ninth; Latham then proceeded to pick a runner off and then get a big strikeout to end the threat. The White Team tacked on runs in the fifth and the seventh to extend the lead. Trey Colvard and Jordan Day had all four hits for the Red Team, going 2-4 and 2-3 respectively. The offense was more spread out for the White Team with 7 different players contributing hits.
 

Game 2 will be on Monday night at 4:30pm ET, with Freshman Josh Harris on the mound for the White Team and Senior Ben Young on the mound for the Red Team.
