  • After getting on base with a walk, junior Deanna Grahek and Quinn both successfully stole to get a second run for UAlbany.

  • Christie Collins added an infield single beating out the throw to first but was left on base in the top of the fourth.
  • The Great Dane defense tabbed a double play to leave it at three batters in the bottom of the fourth. Picking up a ground ball, Grahek stepped on second and threw to first to collect a putout and an assist.
  • Frederick opened the fifth inning with her second hit of the matchup but was left at first base after three outs.
  • Within four batters, the Retrievers had loaded the bases for a game-winning grand slam and a final score of 12-2.
