With its 7-0 victory over South Plainfield on Monday, the Monroe High School baseball team clinched its third consecutive Greater Middlesex Conference White Division championship.
Monroe owns an 8-2 overall record and a 7-0 division mark. Woodbridge (9-4 overall, 4-3 division) is the lone division member with a chance to mathematically tie the Falcons for first place in the division.
But even if the Barrons win their three remaining division games and Monroe loses its three remaining division games, the Falcons hold the tiebreaker between the schools and would win the title outright because they swept Woodbridge in the regular-season series.
According to league rules, the only time a division title is shared is when three or more schools finish with identical records.
Monroe’s only losses this season are out of conference to perennial state powers Toms River North (8-5 defeat) and Seton Hall Prep (3-2 setback in eight innings).
The Falcons have outscored division foes by a combined 51-10 margin of victory.
Junior left-hander Eric Heatter, a Rutgers University commit, struck out 10, allowed two hits and walked one.
Chris Perdoni went 4-for-4 and scored once, while teammate Rico Viani went 3-for-4 and scored twice. Matt Sorrento, Shawn Eldridge (two runs), Kenny Sysyn and Heatter had one hit apiece.
Monroe scored once in the first and twice in the second to build a 3-0 lead. The Falcons rallied for four runs in the sixth to produce the final margin.
Losing pitcher Jake Alba, a Stony Brook signee, allowed five earned runs on 10 hits. He fanned four and walked two.
