Monsignor McClancy had lost three games on the road, but after bumping their record up to 4-8 on Wednesday that streak is in the rearview. They had just enough and edged out the Xaverian Clippers 5-3. This was a revenge game for the Crusaders: when they faced off against the Clippers on Tuesday, they had to take a 2-1 loss.

As for Xaverian, they now have a losing record of 7-8. Their defeat signaled the end of their three-game winning streak.

For Xaverian's part, Jordan Steiger was a force to be reckoned with on the mound despite the final result: he tossed five innings while giving up just one earned run off three hits.

At the plate, Xaverian saw two different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Lucas Zafra, who went 1-for-4 with one stolen base and one double. That double was Zafra's first of the season. Danny Cronin was another, getting on base in two of his four plate appearances with one stolen base and one run.

Both squads are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Monsignor McClancy will welcome Holy Cross at 4:00 p.m. on Friday. As for Xaverian, they will be playing at home against St. Dominic at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday. The Bayhawks will roll in looking for their fourth straight victory, something the Clippers surely won't give up without a fight.
