High School East’s baseball team triumphed over Jackson Memorial last Friday to clinch its first Ocean County title since 2007. Gavin Toth, named the tournament’s MVP, was pivotal in the victory, pitching his team to success and delivering a crucial two-run homer in the sixth inning that extended their lead.
The Raiders secured an 8-5 victory in this decisive championship game, capping off a series of intense encounters with their Shore rivals. Their journey to the title included a nail-biting 10-9 win over Jackson Memorial in April and a challenging 14-7 defeat on Thursday, setting the stage for Friday’s showdown.
