Bouvier racked up seven RBIs on three hits, two for home runs. <\/p>\n<p>The lead stayed with the NECC Knights after the first, when Jonathan DelaCruz of <strong>Haverhill <\/strong>started the game with a double, stole third, and scored on a sacrifice fly by Alex Ray of <strong>Essex<\/strong>. The Knights increased their lead with five runs in the second when Bouvier started the inning with one of those blasts, scoring Chris Martin of <strong>Manchester, NH<\/strong>, Jacob Rayner of <strong>Billerica<\/strong>, and Christopher Andella of <strong>Tewksbury<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Northern Essex Community College Knights continued to score runs until the end of the game. The Knights scored seven runs in the seventh on an RBI single by Chris Martin of <strong>Manchester, NH<\/strong>, a three-run home run by Bouvier, a two-run double by Tyler Johnson of <strong>Newton, NH<\/strong>, and an RBI single by David Cusack of <strong>Newburyport <\/strong>to finish off the win.<\/p>\n<p>Martin who was 3-3 from the plate with 2 runs scored also brought his A game to the mound against Holyoke. Holyoke managed just two hits off Martin, who allowed no earned runs, walked two, and struck out three during his eight innings of work.<\/p>\n<p>This will be the third time NECC has been represented at the World Series.
