How It Happened
Game two of this series had to wait until Sunday. The Gators struck first with three runs in the first on the chilly afternoon. The Barons answered with three of their own to tie it in the second inning, including a two-run home run from Nicholas Peffer. Allegheny was able to take the lead back with four runs in the home half to retake a lead that they would not relinquish. John Fusco went yard as well in the fifth, a three-run shot. The Gators' offense could not be contained, as they went on to win by 10 runs in the eighth inning.

With the win Allegheny moved to 8-0 in PAC play to sit atop the PAC as the lone unbeaten team in conference play so far.
