Goldey-Beacom in game one again dented the scoreboard in the first inning, getting a two-run homer from senior Jaden Dickerson (New Castle, DE) for a 2-0 lead.  Junior Anthony Charles (Mullica Hill, NJ) lined an RBI single in the second for a three-run margin.

The cushion grew to 4-0 before the Golden Falcons plated nine runs in the last of the third inning.  Bryan Santana had a two-run single and Jaxson Wall closed the scoring with a three-run homer for a 9-4 contest.

Senior Braden Kolmansberger (Lewisberry, PA) lifted a sacrifice fly in the fourth in getting the Lightning to 9-5, but Andrew DeAngelis made up for that with an RBI single in the seventh to restore Felician's five-run lead.

Senior Christian Petrillo (New Brunswick, NJ) closed with two hits for the Lightning.  Wall two hits and four RBI, DeAngelis rapped two hits, Johnny Gilligan struck out four over three innings for the win with Andrew Gendi striking out two over four innings for the save.

Felician (34-16, 28-8) in game two scored twice in the opening frame with Haiden Walters getting an RBI double and Chris Corchado following with a run-scoring single for a 2-0 lead.

But the Lightning squared things in the fifth.  Nick Harkins (Newark, DE) reached on a one-out error, took second on a single from fellow senior Matt Benner (Souderton, PA) and scored on an RBI single from freshman Brent Williams (Woodstown, NJ).  Petrillo followed with a run-scoring single to score Benner for a 2-2 deadlock.

The Golden Falcons regained in the lead, 3-2, in the last of the fifth.  Jose David Medrano lined an RBI double, took third on a wild pitcher and scored when Wall's single up the middle beat a drawn-in infield.

Corchado and Wall ended with two hits apiece.
