The tourney stops continued on Thursday with mixed results, especially for Bishop Guertin. The Cardinals softball team avenged an earlier loss to Alvirne with a prelim round win in Hudson.

However, BG’s baseball team, which went into the Division I tourney on a five game winning streak, was ousted by Bedford.

Here’s a look at yesterday’s ups and downs:
