Byline: Daily News

It's a good thing Westlake High doesn't compete in the City Section for the playoffs.

Cleveland of Reseda scored a 4-3 upset victory over Westlake on Saturday in the Daily News Invitational, two days after fellow-City school Kennedy of Granada Hills beat the Warriors 3-2.

Matt Goodman and Robert Marcial combined on a two-hitter to lead the Cavaliers (4-1).

Matt Jordan and Nick Arroyo each had RBI singles for Cleveland and Steven Boyer hit his third home run of the season in the sixth inning, giving the Cavaliers a 4-1 lead.

Westlake could not produce any offense. Mike Nickeas, Luke Riordan and Tyler Adamczyk were a combined 0 for 7 with two walks.

The Warriors scored two runs in the seventh inning, but Jake Brin grounded into a double play to end the rally.

Goodman went five strong innings, surrendering one hit with seven strikeouts and a walk. Marcial gave up one hit, a walk and stuck out two to pick up his second save of the year.

Cody Cipriano pitched four innings for Westlake, giving up one run on two hits and striking out two. He also singled in a run in the seventh inning.
