Last year, the Barnegat High School Bengals varsity baseball team had a chance to win three titles. They were in the finals of the NJSIAA Group 2 playoffs as well as the Shore Conference B South and the Ocean County tournaments. However, they lost all three and couldn’t bring a run home in any of the contests.

Head Coach Dan McCoy made it his mission to at least capture one of those titles this season; that was fulfilled May 7 with an 8-5 win against Jackson Liberty.
