The Eagles capped off their scoring in the fourth inning by putting up a five spot. Abigail Knight singled and a throwing error on the play allowed Mataya to come home. Freshman Darien McDonough hit her team-leading fourth home run of the year with a three-run bomb. Kristin Giery made it 11-0 BC with a pinch-hit RBI single.
