Fernandez Powers 10-Inning Come-from-Behind Victory over Old Westbury

JERSEY CITY, N.J. — Trailing by three runs in the early innings on Tuesday, April 18, the New Jersey City University baseball team tied the game up twice late, forcing extras, before senior Bryan Fernandez (Sayreville, N.J./Sayreville War Memorial) walked it off in the bottom of the 10th with his second home run of the day. At game's end, the Gothic Knights finished off The College at Old Westbury, 6-5, at the Thomas M. Gerrity Athletic Complex. Another highlight on the afternoon came in the bottom of the sixth inning — senior Jimmy Vizzoni (Hamilton, N.J./Trenton Catholic) led off with a single, reaching the 100-hit plateau for his career. He also tossed the final 2.0 innings, shutting out the Panthers to earn the first win of his career.
