Panthers Surprise M-Town

By Corey Kwok

(Monrovia) – Junior pitcher Dominic Correa took control on the mound, firing a complete game and allowing just two hits while striking out five to carry Rosemead to a 4-2 win over Monrovia Monday in the Arcadia Elks Tournament.

Correa retired five of seven leadoff men, and dealt first-pitch strikes to 20 of the 29 batters he faced in a commanding effort.

Angel Lopez, Anthony Parra, Matthew Campos, Dillon Wehrung, and Marcus Gomez each slapped singles during the game for the Panthers. Armani Garcia hit one of his own for an RBI in the first inning, while Oscar Noriega delivered big with a two out, two run double in the fourth inning.

Rosemead travels to Temple City Wednesday to continue action in the Elks tourney.
