HANOVER, N.H. – Senior CJ Egrie established the new Holy Cross baseball single-season stolen base record during a 4-3 loss at non-conference foe Dartmouth Tuesday afternoon at Red Rolfe Field at Biondi Park.

The defeat sends the Crusaders to 16-24 on the year while the Big Green improve to 11-19.

Egrie, who entered the game ranking first in the NCAA in steals per game (1.06) and second in steals (34) went 1-for-4 a pair of steals, his 35th and 36th of 2026 which broke his previous single-season program record that he set in 2025. Egrie is 36-for-37 (97.3 success rate) on stolen bases in 2026 and has 88 career steals. Egrie needs four more thefts to move to third place in Patriot League history.
