And then a triple from Camera put two more runs on the board as Martini and Cuccio scored to give Adelphi a 6-2 lead.

Adelphi picked up the 7-2 win and Mapes earned the win, as Camargo picked up a loss.

Sarah Beliveau started in the circle for AIC in game number two and Fealy started for Adelphi.

Adelphi didn't waste any time getting on the scoreboard in the second game as they picked up three runs in the bottom of the first. Camera walked with the bases loaded to score King and then a single from Lewis scored Cuccio. A sacrifice fly from Xx Sandelier scored Camera to cap off the scoring for the first inning.

The score didn't change until the fourth inning when Adelphi's bats got hot again. Cuccio walked which scored Elisabeth Berard and then a single from Martini scored Konkel, King and Cuccio to give Adelphi a seven run lead.

AIC got two runs back in the fifth thanks to a two RBI single from Lopez-Perez, which scored Lydia DePina and Kayla Riley. The last run of the day came off a double from Jess Lingenberg which scored Ariana DiCioccio.
