SALEM CAGES THE CARDS

CANFIELD, OH- A night after beating West Branch for the first time in over 8 years, the Quakers rolled into Canfield and beat the Cardinals for the first time in over 20 years.

The Quakers’ recently lethargic offense came alive early putting up 3 runs in the first inning. After 2 hit batters and a base hit by sophomore Lane Rhodes loaded the bases, senior catcher Bryce Owen came through with a 2 out base hit, scoring two. That was quickly followed by an RBI single from freshman Blaise Exline.

That would be all the run supports junior starting pitcher Seth Seddon would need. Seddon went the distance for the Quakers giving up 1 run on 5 hits and struck out 4. Seth somehow improved upon the Quaker pitching staff’s already ridiculously low ERA to a sparse 2.13.

The Quakers added a couple of insurance runs in the 5th for good measure on a 2 out, 2 run single by senior Adam Wilson. Seddon did the rest.

Seniors Turner Johnson and Bryce Owen both had 2 hits for the Quaker offense.

The Quakers have evened their record to 5-5 on the season (3-3 in the EBC) and have the rest of the week off before they return to action on Monday at Beaver Local with the first pitch at 5:00 pm.

LADY IRISH CATCH FIRE BEYOND THE ARC, FINISH MOONEY

AUSTINTOWN, OH- The Ursuline Irish advanced to the district championship Monday night with a dominant win over their rival Cardinal Mooney 59-37.

The game started out pretty even, both teams were aggressive on both sides of the court, and both teams left a few points on the free throw line. But Ursuline’s three buckets from beyond the arc kept them ahead 13-6 after the first quarter was said and done.

The second quarter is when the Irish really separated themselves. The Irish outscored the Cardinals 21-4 in the second frame. They hit 3 more three-pointers bringing their total in the first half to 6. Mooney just couldn’t find an answer offensively.  At halftime, the Irish held a dominating 34-10 lead.

Mooney stabilized in the 2nd half finding some offense down low in the post with Conchettta Rinaldi and actually outscored the Irish in the final two quarters. The deficit they faced was just too big. The Irish would cruise to a 59-37 win.

Leading the Cardinals offensively was Rinaldi with 14 points, and 5 rebounds.  

The Irish were led by Dayshanette Harris with 26 points. Destiny Goodnight was also in double figures with 12.  The Irish move on to play in the District Championship against Poland at 7:00 at Austintown Fitch High School.

While the Lady Cards are linked together like a steel chain, one of the Senior Cardinals is especially helping when it comes to tuning up this band.  Conchetta Rinaldi, Mooney’s senior standout has taken this season personally and knows that in her grand finale on the hardwood, she wants to leave everything out on the floor.  She’s known for her defensive ability, and strength in keeping other teams best players off the scoreboard, but has also shown the scorer’s touch when called upon.
This Lady Cardinal intends to fly at the next level as well, as Rinaldi has inked her letter of intent for Youngstown State to continue her softball career.  While we’re certainly looking forward to softball season, our Nate Keiper sits down with Conchetta for this week’s Cardinal Mooney Basketball Player Profile: CARDINAL CONCERTO.

FIRE AND ICE

The Mooney Super-Athlete, Anthony Fire has made a career for himself by making it very difficult to take him out of the game.  In football, he serves in all three phases of the game: offense, defense, and special teams.  Much of the same in basketball as Fire is known to play the entire length of the court.

Anthony is a young man known for the fire in his heart, and the ice in his veins.

The Cardinal Mooney Senior Standout sat down with YSN’s Nate Keiper to discuss what he feels he brings to the team, how he goes about transitioning from season to season, as well as so much more!

We bring you this week’s Cardinal Mooney Basketball Player Profile: FIRE AND ICE!
