Plymouth North finishes undefeated season

By Andrew Petrie, Globe Correspondent

LOWELL -- The Eagles soared to an undefeated record (26-0) after Tom MacInnes doubled home Jared Canney in the bottom of the tenth inning in the Division 2 state title game. Plymouth North defeated Auburn to end one of the best pitching duels of the 2008 tournament.

Joe Flynn (12-0) threw ten scoreless innings, striking out eight. Six of those punch outs came in the seventh inning or later. Flynn only gave up four hits on the day.

Jeff Croteau was just as impressive for the Rockets. The Auburn pitcher only gave up one run, in the tenth, despite only picking up two strikeouts.

But it was the Eagles' day, and now head coach Dwayne Follette and his team can hang an undefeated banner in Plymouth.
