Thoughts on the game: That was an interesting game to say the least. A combined 31 runs scored and Crestwood scoring 23 of those runs. Two players ended up scoring four runs on the game. Every starter recorded a hit on the game. For Pittston Area, Riley Brody and Cole Cherknas had really good games, going 3 for 4 on the day.
