The defending champion St. Lawrence Laurentian­s posted a pair of victories over the weekend to improve to 3-1 in the Molson Challenge Cup Soccer League.

The Laurentian­s’ latest win came Sunday at King George V Park with a 4-0 decision over Holy Cross. The Crusaders, who played to a scoreless tie Saturday with Feildians, are still looking for their first win on the year.

Sunday, the Laurentian­s got goals from Stefan Slaney, Adam Kelly, Sean Drew and Jordi Slaney, on a penalty kick. Goalkeeper Patrick Slaney helped St. Lawrence to a second straight shutout win. On Saturday, Big Blue blanked the previously unbeaten C.B.S. That Pro Look Strikers 1-0.

In Topsail on Sunday, the Strikers bounced back to register their third win with a 4-0 shutout victory over visiting Corner Brook Steers Insurance. Ryan Day, Erick Mathiasen, Zack Mouland and Nico Boehme scored for the winners. Scott Budden got the shutout.
