Hillside High Baseball Hopes Rally Behind Youth Movement
Hillside High's baseball team, led by coach Walt Hennessy, eyes a strong season in the Watchung Conference National Division. With few returnees, a youth movement drives varsity and JV prospects as Butler and Feinman anchor pitching and Kowalsky, Stokes, Hobbs star in infield and outfield. The Comets aim to improve on last year’s 15-16 record with a potent lineup and uncertain pitching staff. A Willside Baseball Tournament kicks off April 19 with scrimmages against Edison, Roselle Park, Millburn, Carteret, and Edison.
