Husson starter Anna Lang picked up the win, allowing no hits and striking out eight over three innings.  Braelynn Wilcox pitched two shutout innings in relief, allowing only a pair of singles to Lyndon's Ella Huntington (Taylorsville, UT) and Megan Richardson (Essex Junction, VT).  Hornet starter Riley McNamara (Manchester, NH) went the distance and took the loss.

Game #2 - Husson 7, VTSU Lyndon 0 (Forfeit)

The game was called after three and a half innings withHusson leading, 20-0.  Since the game didn't reach the point of being official, statistics aren't counted and Husson is awarded a 7-0 victory.
