The Kenilworth Girls 10u softball team, led by manager Kevin Charles, assisted by John Bowles, Bill Hannon, and Mike Goger, recently completed their summer season in the Parkway Invitational Softball League by winning the Championship game against Basking Ridge. One of the many highlights of this season was a rare perfect game pitched by Colleen Hannon on June 25th. During this game versus South Plainfield, Hannon pitched a perfect game with 16 strikeouts in a 9-0 win. The success of the season would not have been possible without the consistent hitting of all the girls including Isabella Casolaro, Cassidy Charles, Brianna Bowles, Catherine Goger, Cara Ortiz, and Colleen Hannon. Partnered with the brilliant fielding all season long by Alyssa Kolbeck, Chelsea Cantalupo, Rachel Villafranca, Brianna Montoya, and Phionna Samila, this team finished the regular season with a perfect 10-0 record on a roll heading into the playoffs.
On July 28, 2015 they faced the Basking Ridge team in the championship game at Dimario Park in Kenilworth. The game was well attended by fans from both teams and action packed. It was a very close game with Kenilworth leading by a mere 2-1 into the 6th inning. With two outs and Basking Ridge batting, they tied the game 2-2. The game then went into extra innings and Basking Ridge took the lead 3-2 in the top of the 7th. The never say die Kenilworth girls responded in the bottom of the 7th inning by scoring a run to tie the game at 3-3. After putting two more runners on base Cara Ortiz ripped a double down the third base line which scored the winning run giving the Kenilworth 10U Girls the league Championship with a 4-3 victory.
