In addition, with the start of play in the state tournament to begin on Monday, the GMC has changed the dates for subsequent rounds of the GMC Tournament to ease the stress on schools' pitching staffs. Here are the changes to the GMC Tournament schedule:

Preliminary and first round to be completed by Sunday, May 22

Quarterfinals: Wednesday, May 25 at East Brunswick and, possibly, Metuchen

Semifinals: Saturday, May 28 at East Brunswick Tech

Championship: Wednesday, June 1 at East Brunswick

As a result it is possible that some first-round games will not be played on Friday as originally scheduled. Please check back here for any updates to Friday's schedule.

The first-round game between Monroe and the South River/Colonia winner will now be played at Monroe on Saturday at 11 a.m.
