It's Been Awhile Since I've Updated This.....

So unfortunately, I have been unable to get to some games. Work has been killing me. Well I finally am able to update this, with three recaps and some rugby news.

We'll start with some rugby news actually. Bonner's rugby team lost their first league game in the programs two year history on Sunday in the championship game to Salesianum. After defeating Cumberland Valley earlier in the day in the semifinals, the team just could not put together a strong game, and unfortunately dropped the game. However, the Friars will compete in the state playoffs, and earned the number 1 seed. They'll host Father Judge this Sunday, May 9th, in the first round of the state playoffs. Time is TBD.

Bonner's baseball team extended their win streak to 7 games on Tuesday, as they defeated Father Judge 4-1. Joe Nestor earned the victory, allowing one run in five innings of work. Marty McKeone came in to pitch the final two innings to seal the Friars win. Bonner accounted for 13 hits, while the Crusaders had just 4. Rick Reigner went 3-4, Steve Markus hit 2-4, and Matt Ruggieri was 1-2 with 2 RBI's. Sam Christie also added a triple in the win. With the victory, Bonner improves their record to 10-3 (7-2 League), and maintains first place with a one game lead over LaSalle (6-3 in league). They'll complete the series with Judge at Judge on Thursday at 3:45.

In other PCL Red Division Baseball action: LaSalle routed third place O'Hara 13-2 in 5 innings. Archbishop Ryan defeated St. Joe's Prep 9-7. Roman Catholic picked up their second league win with a 7-5 win over North Catholic.
In The Blue....Neumann Goretti defeated Kennedy-Kenrick 2-1 in a pitchers duel.

There was also some lacrosse action today. A big game took place between Bonner and O'Hara. Bonner allowed two early goals, rallied back to take a 4-3 lead, but that was about all the positive news the Friars would have. O'Hara scored 7 straight goals to turn a close 6-4 halftime lead into a disastrous day for the Friars. Mike Reagon scored two goals for Bonner. Kyle Mathis, Dan Murphy, and senior standout Rick Reid, who will play his college lacrosse at Alvernia next year, also tallied for the Friars. They look to pick up a win in a league game versus Carroll Wednesday at Bonner.

Prendie softball was also in action today. They defeated Hallahan 9-3. Seven of their 9 runs came in the first inning. Kate Dumont went 2-4 with 2 RBI's, and Emily O'Neil went 2-3 including a double, and also had 2 RBI's of her own. Senior Devon Beese earned the win on the mound for the Pandas. They'll host Archbishop Carroll Wednesday at 3:45.
