There has been snow all around Larry Mahaney Diamond but the Monks of St. Joseph's (Maine) got five games in this week, bucking the trend in the state of Maine.

The Monks improved to 16-2, sweeping two games from Rivier, taking one from Colby and splitting a doubleheader with Husson. Elsewhere in Maine, Husson has had to postpone three consecutive home dates, Bates hasn't played at home since April 1, while Bowdoin and Colby moved their game to a neutral field.

Coach Will Sanborn said early in the week: "We had a lot of work to do just to get the field ready, then get focused on playing baseball. We couldn't have played here today without all of our guys pitching in. Our facilities department really helped out. Jason Chisholm had this place looking great and things worked out."
