Ridgewood NJ, Ridgewood’s Kevin Seitter struck out the side to secure the no-hitter and second-seeded Ridgewood’s third consecutive NJSIAA North 1, Group 4 title, defeating top-seeded Bloomfield 10-0 in five innings in Bloomfield.
Ridgewood’s offense came alive in the top of the fourth. Reed Darienzo and Matt Favieri each got hit by a pitch when Thompson hit a two-out double off the left-centerfield wall to bring in Darienzo. Favieri walked to put runners on first and second for Brian Skettini, who hit a line-drive over the fence in centerfield for a three-run home run to give Ridgefield a 6-0 lead.
Ridgewood then sent all nine batters to the plate in the top of the fifth. Michael Breiter hit a one-out single before advancing to second on a wild pitch. Darienzo drove Breiter in with a single of his own, before coming around to score when Thompson hit a line-drive into shallow centerfield.
