Trinity Defeats Cardinal Stritch for Sixth Straight Win

San Antonio - The Tiger baseball team won its sixth straight game on Monday night, handing Cardinal Stritch (WI) University a 10-0 shutout.

Trinity (11-9) scored its 10 runs in the first five innings, which included three-run innings in the fourth and fifth.  The shutout was also the second in the last four games for the Tiger pitching staff.
