West Essex's baseball team is on a hot run this season with just four losses. Even though the season isn't over, they have proved themselves to be a top team this year. Junior Chris Murano has 600 pitches this season, 93 more than last year. He is the top pitcher for the Knights and has displayed his growth throughout the season. Another top player is Devin Fogg, a Senior with the second-highest number of runs. Devin and Max Garcia are currently the team's top two highest players for stats.
