SAN FRANCISCO - The Stanfel Cup is staying at Frida Kahlo Way for another year.

Adonyae Brown rushed 107 yards and a touchdown and Tevita Tuifua had an interception return for a touchdown, which was one of four turnovers Archbishop Riordan forced on the day, as the Crusaders took down Sacred Heart Cathedral 27-7 in West Catholic Athletic League varsity football play last Saturday at Mayer Family Field.

The Crusaders improved to 5-2 overall and 3-0 in WCAL play with their fourth consecutive victory over Sacred Heart Cathedral.
