GAMES TO WATCH
The coaches from Union and Middlesex Counties are getting together to support a great cause and the result should be some great baseball at the Akadema Union/GMC Autism Awareness Challenge this weekend at Williams Field in Elizabeth. The event will pit teams from both counties squaring off in tripleheaders on Saturday and Sunday.
The feature matchup pits Cranford, the defending state Group 3 champion, against Group 3 contender South Plainfield on Sunday at 1 p.m. The contest features some big hitters in Cranford's Greg Matlosz, who earned All-Union County honors while hitting .397 with 36 RBI last year, against South Plainfield's Brandon Downes, an All-State selection and the Middlesex County Player of the Year last spring after hitting .484 with 15 home runs and 49 RBI.
That game will be followed by what could be a high-scoring affair between Westfield, led by Georgia Tech-bound catcher A.J. Murray, and Monroe with Nick Dini, who began the season needing 60 hits to break the state's all-time career mark of 181.
Here is the complete schedule for the event. Saturday: Union Catholic vs. Middlesex, 10 a.m.; Elizabeth vs. North Brunswick, 1 p.m.; Linden vs. Colonia, 4 p.m. Sunday: Roselle Park vs. Metuchen, 10 a.m.; Cranford vs. South Plainfield, 1 p.m.; Westfield vs. Monroe, 4 p.m.
