Orange High School

Entering Friday’s game against West Brunswick, Orange sophomore Olivia Ruff had never hit a home run. Not in a regular season game, not in a summer league game, not even in practice. Yet in game 2 against the Trojans, the 3rd baseman changed the shape of the series with a grand slam in the 1st inning, putting Orange ahead 5-0, a deficit the Panthers never yielded on its way to a 7-4 win.
