  • The Red Dragons took a run back in the fourth when they stole home for a 4-1 advantage. 
  • The Continentals quickly responded in the bottom of the fourth with their second run. Samantha Smith '23 led off with a single up the middle and moved into scoring position on a ground ball. Hamilton had runners on the corners after Tansky slapped an infield single between the pitcher and catcher. Quinn cut the Continentals' deficit in half with a run-scoring single to left.

Merklin drove in the go-ahead run with an infield single and advanced to second on a wild pitch. Mikayla Worzel '23 plated the second run with a sacrifice fly.  
  • Oneonta threatened in the seventh as the first two batters singled, but Tansky got out of the jam with a fielder's choice, a groundout to first base and a strikeout. 
  • The Continentals took a 2-0 lead in the first frame. McGivney led off with a bunt single, Merklin followed with another bunt for a single, and Quinn loaded the bases with a single to left. Worzel drove in McGivney on a fielder's choice and eventually stole second base. Tansky loaded the bases again with another infield single and Priante forced in a run with a walk.
