Holsen holds it down for Tigers

Jesuit advanced to the semifinal round of the Tigers' Easter Invitational Tournament tonight with a 3-1955_logo_2 quarterfinal win over Regis Jesuit (Aurora, Colo.).

Tigers pitcher Greg Holsen (4-1) was nearly perfect against Regis, throwing a complete-game one-hitter. The senior struck out 12, issued no walks and faced one batter over the minimum, allowing only a leadoff triple in the second. Holsen lowered his season ERA to 1.48.

The win marked the Tigers' eighth straight victory.

Jesuit (15-2), which has outscored the opposition 17-5 over its first two games, now advances to Thursday's 7 p.m. semifinal against Fordham (Bronx, N.Y.) Prep, a 7-0 winner over Gonzaga (Washington, D.C.). The Tigers will turn to ace pitcher Matt Brazis (3-1, 2.31) in that game. If the Tigers advance to Friday's title game, they will likely start Daniel Gibson (1-0, 3.15) in the championship.
