Woonsocket looks like the class of D-III. The Novans showed it Tuesday.

EXETER — It’s hard to imagine Woonsocket surrendering its Division III baseball title with Patrick Munger dialed in as he was Tuesday evening.

Exeter-West Greenwich couldn’t solve the senior right-hander through seven brilliant innings, managing a lone single off Munger’s glove. His offense eventually did enough to keep the Villa Novans unbeaten and cruising through their league schedule.

Doubles by Joe Greenless and Jayden Piette provided all the support Munger required, as he fired a 6-0 shutout against the Scarlet Knights at Wawaloam School on April 28. Woonsocket departed with an 11-game winning streak to open the season and brushed aside the team that sat behind them in the standings entering the day.

Patrick Munger delivers for Woonsocket against Exeter-West Greenwich on Tuesday evening.

“We actually played a full game today – probably one of the only ones we’ve played so far this year,” Munger said. “It felt good to come out here and actually compete.”

Munger struck out 11 and didn’t allow an Exeter-West Greenwich runner to touch third base. He bought the offense some time after three scoreless innings against Scarlet Knights right-hander JJ Langlais, and the Villa Novans eventually took command in the top of the fourth. Two runs on wild pitches sandwiched an RBI double to left-center by Greenless, the key swing as Woonsocket built a 3-0 lead.

“Our team hitting at the plate today was good,” Munger said. “I trusted our guys, they trusted me and that’s what helped us.”

The Villa Novans added on in the fifth thanks to some two-out production. They loaded the bases for Piette, and the young catcher helped his pitcher by sending a drive to deep left that landed at the base of the fence and knocked in a pair. It was a 5-0 cushion and Exeter-West Greenwich only had nine outs to manage a comeback.
