JUNE 12
PIAA STATE PLAYOFFS
SEMIFINAL
CLASS AAAA
At Coplay American Legion Field
Delaware Valley 7, Central 1: The Lancers were no-hit for 4.2
innings. Micah Winterstein then dropped a bloop double just inside the
rightfield line and Mike Braun followed with an infield single. Braun stole
second and the throw glanced off an infielder's glove into the outfield,
allowing Winterstein to score. A walk and error opened the sixth, but the next
three batters went out in order. Jared Farbman and Winterstein did Central's
pitching. Joshua Fleishman made the best defensive play, jumping above the
height of the fence in dead centerfield to prevent a first-inning homer.

PIAA STATE PLAYOFFS
QUARTERFINAL
CLASS AAAA
At Spring-Ford High
Central 1, Central Dauphin 0: Micah Winterstein, a 5-7, 125-pound
sophomore righthander, pitched two-hit ball over the first five innings and,
using his fielding skills (second base), made five assists to help himself
immensely. Jared Farbman then completed the combined three-hitter. The Lancers
scored in the home first as Matt Smith led off with a single, moved up on Nick
DeLeo's groundout and a passed ball and came around on Farbman's single to
right-center. Afterward, the Lancers staged a playful sit-down strike in front
of their dugout in an attempt to gain go-to-prom permission for DeLeo (minor
school infraction). They even held out their hats and shook them back and forth
in we're-begging-you fashion. Dr. Sheldon Pavel, Central's principal, relented.
The giddy Lancers swarmed around DeLeo and doused him with water. The prom
followed; this game started at 1 o'clock.
JUNE 5
PIAA STATE PLAYOFFS
FIRST ROUND
CLASS AAAA
At La Salle High
Central 10, West Chester Henderson 9: The Lancers became the first
non-basketball team to win in the states, largely on the strength of a seven-run
fourth that erased an 8-3 deficit. Joshua Fleishman, Nick DeLeo and Jared
Farbman stroked singles for RBI in the frame while Aaron Esbensen lined a
run-scoring double and Mike Braun drew a bases-loaded walk. Also, Joe Magdovitz
fanned for what should have been the third out. But two runs scored as the
catcher could not immediately find the ball and the pitcher then threw it past
third. In a three-run second, Winterstein doubled in a run and Fleishman got
home TWO by laying down a squeeze bunt on a pitch straight at his head.
Winterstein won in relief and Esbensen earned a two-out save.
At Balliet Stadium, in Coplay
Nazareth 16, Frankford 2: The Pub runner-up was humbled in
this five-inning game. Nazareth scored 12 in the third inning with the help of
nine walks and two hit batsmen. Juan Carlos Torres bagged two of Frankford's six
hits.
CLASS AAA
At Northeast
Southern Lehigh 18, Swenson 0: The Lions committed seven
errors, leading to 10 unearned runs, in this four-inning game, and managed just
one baserunner (Gerald Wolford, walk to lead off home first).
CLASS AA
At Ashburn Field
St. Pius X (Pottstown) 7, GAMP 1: Losing pitcher Andrew Caines
collected two hits and the Pioneers' lone run came on Foster McKoskey's
sixth-inning groundout.
JUNE 1
PUBLIC LEAGUE FINAL
At Campbell's Field, Camden
Central 7, Frankford 1: With nobody out and the bases loaded in the
visiting sixth, pitcher Jared Farbman snapped a scoreless tie with a two-run
single to right-center. Jim Benek (double) and Micah Winterstein (single)
followed with run-scoring hits and an error led to two more runs, giving the
Lancers a 6-0 lead and major reason to celebrate. Farbman scattered nine hits
and did not lose his shutout until two were out in the seventh (on an infield
bobble). Benek finished 3-for-4 with two RBI doubles. Winterstein also went
3-for-4. Benek, the first basemen, made a leaping catch-and-tag play in the
second inning, preventing a throwing error that would have staked Frankford to a
2-0 lead. The Pioneers, the three-time defending champs, fell to 84-5 vs. Pub
opposition, counting playoffs, over the last five seasons.
MAY 31
CATHOLIC LEAGUE FINAL
At Widener University
Conwell-Egan 8, SJ Prep 3: These teams had combined for only one
league championship, and C-E's drought had lasted since 1968, when the school
was known as Bishop Egan and coach Rich Papirio was a substitute. Brian Herman,
as he'd done in the semis, went the distance (five hits, five Ks) as C-E
finished 16-0 against CL opposition. He also hammered a run-scoring double.
C-E's Ryan Terry (leftfield) and Prep's Matt Leddy (rightfield) both poled
two-run homers that barely left the stadium down short lines (300 to LF, 309 to
RF). Leddy's homer created a 3-3 tie, then Ed Barry (double) and Rich Dupell
(single) collected RBI in the home fourth before John McDonald (single) and Mike
Rugghia (double) did likewise in the fifth. The Eagles added an unearned run in
the sixth. All 11 runs were scored with two away. The title was Papirio's third,
ending a 22-year wait (also '80 and '84 at Ryan.)
MAY 27
CATHOLIC LEAGUE SEMIFINALS
(Doubleheader at Widener University)
Conwell-Egan 3, Bonner 1: Brian Herman, the North MVP for the 14-0
Eagles, posted a four-hitter with six strikeouts and helped himself with a
single in the home first that keyed a three-run outburst. Ryan Terry (single)
and John Malloy (two-run triple) followed with hits, then Malloy ran home on a
passed ball. Bonner scored an unearned run in the seventh and had runners on
first and third with two out when Herman recorded a looking strikeout to end it.
SJ Prep 3, La Salle 2: With two out and two men on base in the
home seventh, and just after star lefthander Matt Zielinski replaced T.J. Foley,
Nelson Russom lined a two-run double off the base of the rightfield fence to
hand the Hawks the dramatic win. Tim Edger and Tom Elliott (two outs, two
strikes) had singled. Russom also singled to drive in a third-inning run. Doug
DiSandro allowed five hits, and both runs were scored by guys who drew walks
(thanks to Sean Saverio's double and Ryan Creter's single).
MAY 24
PUBLIC LEAGUE SEMIFINALS
(Doubleheader at Campbell's Field, Camden)
Central 2, Northeast 1: Jared Farbman pitched no-hit ball for four
innings with six strikeouts, then finished with a three-hitter and the same
number of Ks. Matt Smith drew a walk to open the home first, stole second and
scored on Aaron Esbensen's double to left. In the second, Joshua Fleishman
looped a two-out single to right and Smith and Nick DeLeo (RBI) followed with
singles. Losing pitcher Joe Breitweiser tripled for a sixth-inning run.
Frankford 10, GAMP 2: Jose Burgos (4.1 innings) and Esteban "Shortie"
Meletiche (no hits allowed) did the pitching while big hits were provided by
Ramon Reyes (RBI triple), Juan Carlos Torres (two-run single) and Jeffry Bru
(two-run triple on flyball lost in lights). Dave Doggett added two RBI on a
grounder and single. Christian Matticks and Eric Funaro rapped RBI singles for
GAMP and Foster McKoskey fanned all four batters he faced.
CATHOLIC LEAGUE SECOND ROUND
La Salle 4, Judge 0: Matt Zielinski, a senior lefty committed
to Richmond, pitched a two-hitter with 14 strikeouts, second only in CL playoff
history to the 16 recorded by Carroll's Keith Conway in a 1991 second-round win
over Neumann. Sixty-eight of his 99 pitches were strikes. The Explorers posted
three in the second. Jeff Liberatore singled, stole second and came around on
John Knab's double. Jared Carter (triple) and Steve Ullrich (sac fly) added RBI.
Bonner 7, O'Hara 3: The Friars spotted upstart O'Hara a 3-0 lead,
then roared back behind the likes of Mike Coleman (two-run single) and Matt
Gallagher (two-run double). Rob Graham won in relief thanks to four-hit,
nine-whiff work over 5.2 innings. For O'Hara, Pat Young went 4-for-4 and

Field. The Crusaders packed all of their runs into the third and Justin
DeCristofaro provided the highlight with a two-run triple. Mike Chichearo went
3-for-4 with an RBI. Mike Siravo singled home Ryan's run.
O'Hara 8, Kennedy-Kenrick 1: At Widener, a site being used for
only the second year, the Lions continued their hot streak with their third
postseason win in four days. Joe Sessa (4.1 innings) and Harry Duke combined for
a five-hitter with eight whiffs while Marco Menna went 3-for-3 with three RBI.

RBI.

PUBLIC LEAGUE QUARTERFINALS

sac fly and three RBI and Ian Lewis stole three bases as his personal courtesy
