One year ago, the Cheney Tech baseball team lost to Wilcox Tech of Meriden in the Constitution State Conference championship game. This year it was very different with Cheney Tech capturing the CSC Crown with an impressive 5-0 victory. Cheney Tech ace Jake Merritt pitched a one hit shutout striking out eight. Dan Lima and Josh Figueroa got on base in the fourth with singles. Merritt then knocked in the first run. Ryan Vieira had a two-run single and Kevin Mainville batted in the fourth run. In the second inning, Wilcox gave up a sacrifice fly to Ryan Jeski and that was all Cheney Tech needed. Besides pitching the one-hitter, Merritt had two hits. Lima scored two runs and two stolen bases.

The team finished with a perfect 6-0 record in their division and an impressive 19-1 record overall. Four players were voted onto the Constitution State Conference All-Conference East Team: Jake Merritt, Ryan Jeski, Josh Figueroa, and Dan Lima. Ben Tremblay was also names as an Honorable Mention.
