E.D. White was an underdog on paper heading into their Best of 3 series with St. Charles Catholic.
There’s a reason why games are not won or lost on paper.
The Cardinals beat the Comets tonight 5-1, sweeping the series over the No. 2 seed in Division II Select.
The No. 7 Cardinals took Game 1 yesterday in extra innings. They followed that up this afternoon, playing flawless throughout the game, taking the lead and never relinquishing it to punch into the Quarterfinals.
With the win, E.D. White will stay on the road in the next round. The Cardinals will face the winner between No. 3 Loyola Prep and No. 6 Hannan.
It is Hannan who has the 1-0 lead in that series.
The best of 3 series will be played next weekend.
