Game Summary
LA SALLE’S CRUSADE COMES UP SHORT
Tuesday, May 20, 2025 – The La Salle Cardinals dropped a tough 3-4 road loss against Cathedral Prep on Tuesday inside Juniper Valley Park. The loss drops the Cardinals record to 6-4 entering the last two games of the season.
Cathedral Prep (6-6), playing their senior night game got on the board in the first inning with an unearned run after an errant throw from third base skipped under the glove at first, allowing a run to score on the potential third out. Not to be outdone, La Salle cashed in two unearned runs of their own in the top of the fourth to take a 3 – 1 lead. But the Cardinals allowed the Crusaders to chip away and in the bottom of the sixth, they finally broke through to secure the win, great for the home fans but not so much for the visitors.
