While Alex Thompson delivered a dominant effort on Tuesday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Cardinal Newman. Thompson pitched 0.2 innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. The performance also marked the fewest walks (zero) he has had since back in February.
Even though Thompson couldn't lead Cardinal Newman over St. John Paul II Academy, he won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. Sadly, Thompson's big day wasn't enough to stop the loss, which snapped the Crusaders' 12-game streak of wins at home. With the streak broken, Thompson and the Crusaders surely have a bit of extra motivation heading into Thursday's match.
