The Florence Flashes have only managed to play 16 games this season
And while they’re just 8-8, head coach Kyle Ballay believes they have been tested by some tough teams in Burlington County.
Whether that experience yields positive results today in the CJ1 semifinals is another story.
This afternoon at 4:00, the 12th-seeded Flashes will take on top-seed Middlesex (18-4) in the Central Jersey Group 1 semifinals at Mountainview Park.

Florence is an interesting study by the numbers.
They allowed ten or more runs in all eight of their losses, yet they scored at least ten in five of their eight wins.
In all their defeats, they averaged about three runs. So, the idea would be to put up some crooked numbers against Middlesex pitching, if they can.
