The Profs were ahead 5-0 after the second inning.  Anderson scored on a fielder's choice with Genello at bat.  With the bases loaded, Snead was hit by a pitch and third baseman Nicole Paiotti (so.

Bloomfield, NJ/Bloomfield) stole second.  Mercado came home on Genello's base hit.
 
DeYoung recorded a home run in the bottom of the seventh inning for the victory in the second game.  It was her 10th homer on the season.  In the third, she blasted a solo shot to right field, which tied the score at one.  The Scarlet Raptors' run came in the first inning.  Pitcher/first baseman Abby Merryman (jr. Washington Twp., NJ/Gloucester Catholic) got on base with a walk.  She later scored on an error.
 
Hyland pitched a complete game for her second win on the day.  She (16-3) allowed just two hits and had five strikeouts.  Scott took the loss on the mound.
