The Owls pushed across a run in the bottom half of the inning when Staubley led off with a single and then went to second when Jake Chacho drew a walk. Bam Talavera loaded the bases with a base hit before Alex Cappellucci's sacrifice fly to right field scored Staubley with the Owls' only run.

Cody Heselton took the loss after giving up four runs on seven hits over 4 2/3. Jake O'Connor pitched well in relief, giving up four runs – only one of which was earned – on two hits while striking out five.

Game 2 – SCSU 9, St. Michael's 7
