LINDENWOLD - The Roughriders opened their 2011 season the way they ended the 2010 season, with a loss to Cherry Hill

lead in the second off of Andrew Del Rossi (3 IP, 4 H, 2 ER, 0 BB, 1 K). Mike Reagle kept the Roughs close by pitching two scoreless frames of no-hit ball
(0 BB, 2K) in innings four and five, and the Roughs then rallied to tie the game in the sixth. Adriano Petrutz and Phil Guinto both singled to begin the inning.
Eric Juliani’s sac fly scored Petrutz and Ryan Easterday’s two-out double scored Guinto. But Cherry Hill would tally a single run in the seventh off
reliever Frank Houser (2 IP, 2 H, 2 BB, 1 K) to take the game. Chris Bartell had two of the Roughriders' seven hits.
