Tied 2-2 after five innings, the Profs broke it open in the sixth as pinch hitter Bobiak started a four-run inning for Rowan as he singled in DiDomenico. He joined Jared Marks on base to set the stage for a three-run homer by McIsaac, his first of the year, down the left-field line to give the Profs a 6-2 lead.
 
DiDomenico increased the edge to 8-2 in the seventh as he hit his second round-tripper of the year to bring in Manganella, who had singled.
 
The Profs then exploded for five runs in the eighth, thanks to a three-run triple by Ryan Murphy and a solo home run from Trip McCaffrey, to take a 13-2 lead.
 
Christian Bascunan earned the win as he held NJCU to one run and one hit in 4.1 innings, and struck out six, in relief. Starter Connor Metelski allowed just two hits and struck out four in 3.1 innings of work.
 
The Profs opened the game with two runs in the first inning as leadoff batter McIsaac was hit by a pitch and scored when Murphy reached on an error. Manganella drove in Nick Schooley with a single to give Rowan the early 2-0 lead.
