Xaverian Brothers dropped their record down to 14-4 on Wednesday, which also ended the team's three-game streak of wins. They fell 4-1 to the Bishop Feehan Shamrocks. Having soared to a lofty ten runs in the game before, the Hawks couldn't push the score so high this time.

Xaverian Brothers got a good showing from Colin Mont, who struck out seven batters over three innings while giving up just one earned run off three hits (and not a single walk). Mont has been consistent: he hasn't given up more than two walks in six consecutive appearances.

At the plate, Xaverian Brothers saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Mike O'Keefe, who went 1-for-3 with one triple and one run. That triple marked the first that O'Keefe has hit this season.

As for Bishop Feehan, they have been performing incredibly well recently as they've won 12 of their last 13 contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 16-3 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.8 runs on average over those games.

On Bishop Feehan's side, Jack Gasse spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered only one earned run on three hits.

On the hitting side, Owen Mordas and Finn McHale did most of the damage at the plate: Mordas got on base in all three of his plate appearances with two runs and one stolen base, while McHale went 1-for-3 with one triple, two RBI, and one run. Another player making a difference was Randen May, who went 2-for-4 with one triple, one stolen base, and one RBI.

Both squads will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Xaverian Brothers will challenge King Philip Regional at 4:00 p.m. on Friday. The two teams have allowed few runs on average (the Hawks 3.1, the Warriors 2.1) so any runs scored will be well earned. As for Bishop Feehan, they will take on North Attleborough at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
