On Monday Glen Cove beat East Meadow in a non-league game to improve their overall record to 9-3. But of greater significance was the fact that the game was a fundraiser in memory of Thomas Renison, a 48-year-old Glen Cove jeweler who was murdered during a robbery in December 2004. According to Glen Cove coach Kelly McDonough, all of the money raised will go toward a college scholarship for a senior Glen Cove softball player.
Glen Cove won the game 7-5. With the score tied at 5 in the sixth inning, Kim Kessel hit a leadoff single, advanced to third on Sara Graziosi's single, and then scored on a double steal. Graziosi came around to score on Salia Calinda's single to give Glen Cove the two-run cushion. Starter Aja Alter pitched a complete game, giving up seven hits and four walks and striking out five. Kessel finished 3-for-3 with a home run.
