NAVY BASEBALL: The Mids dropped the first two games of its Patriot League season on Saturday as Holy Cross swept the doubleheader with a 3-1 outcome in game one and a 4-2 result in game two. Navy (19-8-1, 0-2 PL) outhit Holy Cross (11-16, 2-0 PL) in both games and saw its starting pitchers both hurl six-plus innings and allow just three runs each.
"It was one of those things where we left too many men on base to win two close ball games," remarked head coach Paul Kostacopoulos. "We never had that big, connected inning, where we got two or three runs.
