Earning their first hits for the Lions in game one was Ryleigh Prinz, Katie Behler, Isabella Cummings and Gabriella Weiss. All five Lions reached base on a single with Weiss also tallying her first collegiate RBI in the process.
 
Grace Landante went 2-4 at the plate while also coming around to score both of the Lions runs from the leadoff spot. The two-hit game is the first of the career for the sophomore Lion who started at third base this afternoon.
