	Patriots Narrowly Fall to St. Luke's
	The Patriots came back strong after ending the first inning facing a 4-1 deficit.  Matt Bornstien took the mound and pitched 2 innings of one run ball as the RA boys fought back to a 5-4 score.  Needing one run to tie and two to win, they feel just short with runners in scoring position. Addison Cilmi hit a clutch double rbi double to put RA back in the game while Ethan Hynes, Chris Birch, Corey Rispoli and Andrew Chiodi also had hits for the Patriots.  Coach Lindstrom and Coach Curry were proud of their efforts and are looking forward to the team's next game against Greenwich Catholic (which has switched to a home game) on May 1st.

	A Swing and a Win for the RA Patriots
	The 7th and 8th Grade Patriots started off their season with a bang, routing New Canaan Country School 12-0. The team scored 5 runs in the first inning alone and never looked back. Bats were hot throughout the game, with doubles by Michael Ambrosio, Ethan Hynes, Corey Rispoli and Addison Cilmi. Hynes also stole two bases, while Cilmi, Rispoli and Ethan Bruck had RBIs for the team. A combined pitching effort by Chris Birch, Hynes and Matthew Bornstein led the team to a no-hitter, striking out 4, 4 and 3 respectively. The Patriots are back in action on Tuesday, April 17th.
