What's At Stake
The No. 1 seeded Cavaliers will kick off the First Round (Pod A) of the Atlantic East Conference Baseball Tournament on Friday morning at 9am when they host No. 6 Wesley College. The Wolverines will face a quick turnaround when they face No. 4 Immaculata University at 12:30pm. Cabrini and Immaculata will conclude the day's games with a 4pm nightcap. 

If the Cavaliers win both games, they will be in prime position to advance to next weekend's Final Round as they will need to take just one more game against the winner of Immaculata and Wesley. 

If all three teams finish day one with a 1-1 record, then Immaculata and Wesley will rematch at 11am on Saturday and the Diamond Cavs will face the winner of that game in a decisive game five. The winner of Pod A will face the winner of Pod B in next weekend's aforementioned best-of-three Final Round. Pod B consists of No. 2 seeded Gwynedd Mercy University, No. 3 seeded Marymount University and No. 5 seeded Neumann University.

McKisson tallied three hits and two RBI's, while six additional Cavs collected two hits a piece. Sophomore Steven Priest finished with three RBI's to highlight the bunch. 

Freshman Mike Gama earned the victory in relief of junior starter Drew Jackson after being removed in the second inning. Gama tossed two perfect innings and struck out four for his first victory of the year. 

The offense again started quickly as the Cavs struck for eight runs in the first three innings, but the Wolverines answered with three runs in the bottom of the second and another in the third to cut their deficit to 8-4.

After an RBI single from Moyer, followed by an RBI walk from Barrett to take a 10-4 lead, Wesley again answered as they pushed across four runs in the bottom half of the frame to trim the Cavs' lead to 10-8. 

The Blue and White would put the game out of reach thanks to a four run top of the fifth, followed by a seven run top of the seventh to expand their lead to a sizable 21-8 advantage. Another late run from Wesley would cap the game's scoring in the bottom of the eighth. 

Cabrini vs. Immaculata Last Meeting: Cabrini 13, Immaculata 6 (4/28/2019, Radnor, PA)
The Cavaliers yielded just three runs through the first eight frames as freshman Jonathan Baker, sophomore Ray Lutick and freshman Mike Gama combined to allow just eight hits and strike out seven. Baker earned the start and turned in 4.1 innings, making just one mistake that ended in a three run home run. 

Lutick came on in relief and secured the victory, his fifth of the season, after 2.2 innings and one hit. 

Offensively the Blue and White were led by freshman Brandon Loner after finishing 2-5, including a double, with three RBI's. Senior Tyler Norris matched Loner's three RBI's while also smashing his team leading fifth homerun of the season. Freshman Garrett Laraia, sophomore Brendan Van Belleand junior Henry Peguero rounded out the Cavs with multi-hit days as each tallied a pair of hits. 

Cabrini opened up the scoring in the bottom of the first after sophomore Mack McKisson, Laraia and Van Belle loaded the bases for JD Barrett. The sophomore worked a walk to force home the game's first run. Loner follwed with a double over the head of the center fielder to put the Cavs up 3-0, while Norris capped the scoring courtesy of a sac fly to plate Barrett. 

After the Diamond Cavs pushed the score to 5-0 after the second inning, Immaculata trimmed their deficit to 5-3 thanks to Tom Prato's aforementioned three run homerun. The Blue and White would get one run back in the bottom of the third, however, thanks to an RBI double from Peguero to score junior Shaun Stackhouse. 

The Cavs would put the game away in the middle innings as they scored two in the fifth, four in the sixth and one in the seventh to balloon their lead to 13-3. Norris' fifth homerun of the year highlighted the Cavalier run. 

Wesley vs. Immaculata Last Meeting: Immaculata 9, Wesley 7 (4/18/2019, Immaculata, PA)
