Reilly limited Piscataway to only five base runners, with none going beyond first base. "My main objective was to keep them (Piscataway) off base." said Reilly.

"Reilly was certainly over-powering remarked Piscataway coach Bob Pietrucha. "But I can't take anything away from Mark (Ochal). He gave me everything I could want. He had real heart. "Mark was at his best.

It was just a good baseball game," concluded the veteran coach. Ochal had to deal with a team that entered the game with a phenominal .402 season's batting average. With the exception of the first inning, when the Union County team scored the game's only run, Ochal only permitted one runner to advance to third base. That being the fourth inning, when Reilly reached third on a two-base error in the outfield and a wild pitch. Ochal, however, squelched the rally by inducing leftfielder Frank Carlino .4401 to line out and catcher Henry Janssen (.453) to strike out.

"We weren't awed by their (Scotch Plains) batting averages or Reilly." commented Pietrucha. "He just threw the ball and we swung and missed." Scotch Plains (29-3) scored its only run in the first inning on Reilly' run-scoring single to rightfield. After Ochal opened the game setting down shortstop Scott Rogers 462) on strikes, first baseman Tim Lasbe lined a single over the head of shortstop Jon Keates. With Reilly at bat, Lasbe stole second and moments later scored on Reil-ly's safety. After the Scotch Plains first inning, Reilly and Ochal matched zeros, with Reilly earning his fifth shutout of the year.

Over the next six innings, Ochal retired the heavy-hitting Raiders one-two-three in four, while never facing more than four batters in the other two. Ochal threw only 78 pitches over the seven-inning contest with 60 being in the strike zone. By TOM PALL Home News correspondent WEST WINDSOR Scotch Plains High School pitcher Ed Reilly has garnered numerous accolades this year, regarded as one of the top scholastic baseball players from Union County. And Reilly, the powerfully-built righthander, certainly showed how he earned his credentials, pitching and batting Scotch Plains to the NJSIAA State Group IV championship, nipping Piscataway. 1-0.

"Ed was just superb today. "I was surprised that the game wound up 1-0. I thought it would be a little more of a high-scoring affair." remarked the hefty coach. Reilly, sporting a "It's fun to be no. 1" button, responded.

"This (the championship i tells it all. Going all the way in the states shows how good a team you are." The hard-throwing righty throttled Piscataway with hopping fastball blended with a sharp over-hand curve in boosting his record to 11-3. LAW CAKES VOLLEYBALL GYM SETS PIECES So.

"He was able to handle himself and I'm very proud of him." While Ochal was throwing 78 pitches, Reilly fired 98, with 66 being strikes.

On four occasions, Reilly went to a full-count situations, walking two. The Chiefs best threat came in the sixth inning when the ninth hitter, Tom Catessa lined a Reilly curve ball to centerfield for a single. Reilly, however, thwarted the rally, getting leadoff hitter Brian Spence to pop out, third baseman Dave Herbig to strike out and Keates to ground out. Piscataway made another attempt to knot the score in the final inning when Ochal drew a one-out walk. Jeff Davis ran for the hurler and, after Steve Podraza struck out, was thrown out attempting to steal to end the game.

The catcher threw the same kind of strike that Reilly was throwing," mused Pietrucha. The Chiefs, a team that had stolen 130 bases over the course of a 23-5-1 season, failed to pilfer one against Reilly. "We didn't get many men on base," said Pietrucha. "The situation has to present itself. "In the last inning, I thought we might catch them napping," continued Pietrucha.

Spence, who had established a school record of 41 stolen bases, failed to get on base going 0-3. Reilly, one of the top hitters in the state, ended his career with a .509 batting average (54-106), with a one-for-three performance against Ochal. Scotch Plalm (1) Pitcitaway (0) Ab M. AO. M.
