ANNAPOLIS, Md. - Andreas Andrews (Los Angeles, Calif.) netted both first half goals as Holy Cross defeated Navy, 4-1, in Patriot League action tonight.

Marsalis Beckford (Brantford, Ontario) set up the first Crusader scoring opportunity as Andrews knocked a header past Navy's goalkeeper Thomas Jenkins, giving Holy Cross an early 1-0 lead. With little hesitation, Miller scored the Crusaders' second goal just 1:04 later, assisted by Sefton Kincaid (Orlando, Fla.). Ending the first period, Holy Cross held onto a 2-0 lead.

Assisted by Andrews, Jon Werth (University Park, Md.) continued the Crusaders' offensive momentum into the second half, scoring with 28:57 left in the game.

Navy's efforts were finally rewarded as Justin Waskey made a shot inside the box, allowing Anthony Parker to catch the rebound and put into an open net. With 14:45 left in the game, Navy scratched the Crusaders' shutout, 3-1.

With 7:40 left in the game, Holy Cross was far from ending the game quietly. Receiving a pass from Felipe Castrillon (Weston, Fla.), Andrews took the ball down the field going one-on-one with Jenkins, netting the fourth Crusader goal in the left corner.

Crusaders' goalkeeper Thomas Booth (Patchogue, N.Y.) and Jenkins both had three saves.
