SPORTING SCFNF Long, Gore 1 Trojans On I BY JOHNNY CRAIG f Shortstop Derek Long and pitcher t Matt Gore are currently leading the r West Brunswick baseball Trojans a statistically after seven games, c Long, s junior, is leading the Trojans u at the plate with a .375 average that n includes six hits in 16 plate ap- n pearances. Gore, a senior, is off to a 2-2 start tl on the mound for the Trojans with a E 2.63 ERA (earned run average), h Gore has struck out 28 over 26.2 inn- a ings while teammate Timmy Ludlum is not far behind. Ludlum (1-2) threw his first com- plete game of the season in Saturday's 5-1 win over South < Brunswick. Ludlum has a 3.89 ERA and has struck out 19 in 18 innings pitched. c At the plate, Craig Johnson is the a Troians' second-leading hitter with a f .263 average. Johnson has collected I five hits in 19 plate appearances and c also leads the team in runs batted in C (oj. jonnsonnas also pitched two inn- o ings of relief work for the Trojans. The Trojans are batting just .213 as v a team through the first third of the s season. This figure will need to rise ( dramatically for West Brunswick to successfully defend its Three Rivers v Conference crown. West Brunswick's pitching staff E appears to be in good hands with the ( team of Gore and ludlum. The team ERA of 3.00 is respectible but can carry the Trojans only a short ways with such a low team batting average. W.
