Victoria Lopez took the complete game loss and fell to 1-3 on the season.
In game two, JCSU jumped to a 1-0 lead in the fourth inning when
Jocelyn Hernandez (Bloomington, Cal.) reached on an error. She would later score when

Bowie State would go ahead 2-1 in the fifth inning scoring both runs with two out. The Bulldogs' got a homer to tie it and then strung together three straight singles to drive in the go-ahead run to make it 2-1.
JCSU would never threaten the rest of the way, eventually falling 2-1. Peralta took the loss for JCSU, and fell to 1-5 overall on the season.
