crosschecked
Verified against another
Crosschecked is the past tense of crosscheck, meaning to verify something by consulting multiple sources or using a different method: She crosschecked the figures against the original receipts.
The word implies careful verification rather than casual confirmation.
In hockey, to crosscheck is to hit an opponent with the shaft of the stick held horizontally—a penalty-worthy move.
