Game 1 – (Post 4, Southern Connecticut 2)
  • After a scoreless two innings, Post broke the deadlock, scoring off a Leyri Rivera RBI single up the middle. The Eagles went on to score three more runs off two hits in the third to take a 4-0 lead.
  • In the bottom of the seventh inning, Zubia got the Owls offense rolling, doubling down the left field line to bring home Ivy Geloso (Beacon Falls, Conn.), 4-1. The next play, a passed ball allowed Cailey Botteon (Moodus, Conn.) to squeak home and cut the Eagles lead in half, 4-2.
