New Jersey Jackals 3 Rockland Boulders 2

For many years Galen, Aron and I would go to Riverfront Stadium in Newark to watch the Newark Bears. Free tickets to their games were a minor benefit given to NJIT employees. Over the winter we found out that the Bears had folded, thus we needed a new idea to continue our baseball tradition. We decided to go to Montclair to see the New Jersey Jackals who belong to the Can-Am league which is not affiliated with Major League Baseball.

The game started at 11 AM to accommodate day campers. It was close as the Jackals beat the Boulders 3-2.
