Loyola had some dramatics of
its own, moments earlier, as Joe Cummings netted a feed from Steele
Stanwick, as time expired in regulation to tie the contest and force
overtime.

Loyola battled up hill all afternoon as it trailed the Lakers, 3-2, at the half and, 8-5, in the second half.

Junior
Mark Field paced the Lakers with three goals, Dudley had an assist to
go with his game-winner and Frank added two goals.  In addition, senior
Brett Weiss scored a goal and handed out two assists.

Stanwick was the only Don to score two goals and he also finished with two assists.

Both
keepers were tested early and often by the wealth of talented on both
offenses and each turned in outstanding efforts.  BL’s Jacob Hageline
stopped 12 shots and Loyola’s Leonard has 12 saves.

Despite the slow start the Cardinals
eventually took to the cozy confines at Curley and blasted four home
huns, as John Collingsworth, Bobby Corton, Kevin Lingerman and Drew
Burton all went deep.

Nick Caddick threw into the sixth inning
for Calvert Hall to pick up the win, as the Friars were limited to just
four base hits on the afternoon.

Sean Thompson made the start
for Curley and did job of holding down the potent Cardinal lineup until
the fifth, but was eventually tagged with the loss.

Curley has
now dropped three straight, all in league play, and is now 4-4 overall
and 0-3 in the A Conference.  Calvert Hall remains unbeaten at 7-0 and
the Cardinals are 3-0 in the league.

Looking
to start a rally before darkness would suspend the game, McQuitty
jumped on a pitch in his wheel house and drove the gab in
right-centerfield for a triple and when the relay throw was mishandled
by the Patriots, McQuitty raced home with the winning run.

John
Carroll out-hit Loyola, 9-7, on the afternoon, but only managed to
score in one inning.  Trailing 3-0 heading into the top of the seventh,
John Carroll rallied to tie on a two-out, three run triple by junior
Joey Loiodice.

That hit came off Loyola junior pitcher Bobby
Kirby, who started, went even innings and came within one batter of a
complete game shutout.  Kirby was also was 1-for-3 with an RBI.  Senior
Ryan Zikorus picked up the win with two innings of shut
out relief.

Junior  second-baseman Tom Carroll and senior outfielder Tom Cullen also contributed RBI’s for the Dons.

Donte Greene prepares to release the rim after slamming through two of his 10 points in last night’s McDonald’s All-American game in Louisville.

Playing
amongst the top high school seniors in the nation, all bound for big
time college basketball programs and perhaps beyond, Towson Catholic’s
Donte Greene proved he belonged with the elite during a strong 17
minute performance last night at the McDonald’s All-American basketball
game, in Louisville, Kentucky.

Before a national television
audience, and more than 11,000 fans at Freedom Hall, Greene scored 10
points by going 4-of-7 from the field, including one three-pointer, and
hitting 1-of-2 free throws.  The 6′-10″ University of Syracuse recruit
also had two rebounds and an assist, as well as a rim rattling
two-handed slam.

Greene’s East squad fell to the West, 114-112, but the final score was hardly relevant.

Wick Eisenberg, Andy Dolina and Mike Meshulam limited St. John’s to just two hits and the single run.

Nislow’s
big blow came with two outs as he drove the ball to right-center to
plate Alex Goldstein and Robert Atkinson.  Sophomore Kelly Dayton also
had a triple for the Quakers, bringing in Austin Lasky, who later
smacked a RBI double.
