The Fords enter this second round matchup riding their high horse after upsetting #7 Friends Central 15-3 on Friday afternoon. They look to continue what could be a cinderella run for the Fords against a very good Perkiomen team.

The Fords had an…okay regular season, finishing 8-15, but still making the playoffs. In their first game, it wasn’t close as they smoked Friends Central 15-3.

The Fords will lean heavily towards their offense, led by junior Jaidyn Rivera, as he went 4-5 last time out against Friends central. He also boasts two multi-homer games this season and 12 HR overall which leads all of Delco.

As a team they had 14 hits all together, with five guys having multi-hit games.

Senior Pat White (RIT commit) and senior Zac Fuscaldo (F&M commit) both had multiple RBIs on Friday against Friends Central. The young bats have stepped up lately with sophomore Thomas Lawler and freshman Zack Lawler as well as sophomore Nicky Vanni.

Look for The Fords offense to be a key to victory.

This will Perkiomens first game of the playoffs, as they had the first round bye as they are the #2 seed.

Perkiomen, just like Haverford, is a very offense heavy team. They had six guys hit over .500 on the season, including senior Avery Smith (Penn State commit) hit .500 with a 1.698 OPS. Smith is the runner of the offense, leading the team in basically every major category, including five homers on the year.

Senior Ryan Sink (Mansfield commit) served as the teams ace, followed by senior Justin Fryer (Northwestern commit) who was the teams strikeout leader. Sink posted a team best 1.39 ERA. Fryer posted a 2.42. They were the only pitchers on the team with an ERA under 4.00.

This game should be an exciting one, two great offenses going at it for a chance to advance and move on to the semi finals on May 22 against the winner of Episcopal and SCHA.
