BALTIMORE, MD – The Cabrini field hockey team clinched its spot in the Colonial States Athletic Conference tournament today, as it topped Notre Dame of Maryland University 5-0.

The Cavaliers' fifth consecutive victory improved the team to 9-6 overall and 5-1 in the conference.  With one league game remaining, the Blue and White sit in second place.
