Fresh off its season-opening defeat against Lynnfield on Saturday, first-year coach Leon Elwell and his young Lynn Classical baseball team flipped the switch against Everett on Tuesday. The final score favored the visiting Rams (1-1), 12-1.
Leading the charge was Christian Figueroa, who went 3-for-3 with two runs while striking out 10 Everett batters. Rolky Brea went 2-for-5, while Elijiah Morin and Almani Gerardo also contributed offensively.
“We played everybody. The freshmen continue to impress me,” Elwell said. “Defensively, we made all the plays we needed to make… It was a total reverse of our first game – I think we got all of the nerves out.”
The Rams look to keep the momentum intact on Wednesday as they host Malden at Fraser Field with first pitch slated for 7 p.m.
BASEBALL
Boston Collegiate Charter 3
Lynn Tech 1
Despite strong defense and effort, plus being “in striking distance the entire game,” according to head coach Eddie Lewis, his Lynn Tech Tigers (1-1) fell to Boston Collegiate Charter at Fraser Field.
“We just got off to a slow start. We played some solid defense tonight, but we had a couple of plays that we would’ve loved to get back. Whenever we got some momentum going, they were able to find a way to slow us down,” Lewis said. “With the exception of a few mental errors, we were in striking distance the entire game.”
Tech’s next game is Friday against city rival KIPP Academy, with first pitch set for 3 p.m.
“They always come to play, so it should be a good one,” Lewis said.
