On Wednesday, April 23, at 6:00 P.M., the Saint Xavier Tigers will take the field against the Trinity Shamrocks at Trinity Stadium in a classic rivalry game.
St. X is off to a successful start to the season, sitting with a record of 16-4 and ranked #4 in the state. The Tigers have won six straight games, with key wins over Providence Catholic (IL), Male, and Madison Central on their current win streak. On the other hand, Trinity enters the game with a 15-2 record and ranked #1 in the state.
This is the first game between the Tigers and the Shamrocks this year after matching up three times last season. Trinity bested St. X all three times last season, beating the Tigers twice in the regular season and ultimately ending their season in the regional tournament.
St. X is prepared for a different result this year against the Rocks, and have the perfect opportunity to showcase to the rest of the state that they are a legit threat. This will be a great game on Wednesday, and for the Tigers to come out on top, they need to be dialed in from the start.
They need to come out with high energy and take advantage of any early opportunities to score. In addition, they need to pitch effectively from the start and play a clean game in the field. The Tigers’ high energy from the start will flow throughout the rest of the game.
This year’s regular season game between the Tigers and the Shamrocks will be a good one, and the Tigers are prepared to step up and succeed in this big time moment.
