Stonehill added a pair of unearned runs in the second inning, followed by three runs in the third (two unearned) to seize the 9-0 advantage after three innings of play.

Stonehill picked up three more runs in the bottom of the eighth inning as well, ending the frame with three hits and leaving three runners on to account for the 12-0 final. The Skyhawks held a 12-7 edge in hits for the game and took advantage of five Assumption errors to pick up the win.

Freshman Andrew Jaehnig (Quincy, Mass./Boston College) led the offense with two hits in the game, while three Skyhawks picked up multiple hits.

Flynn took the loss over his four-inning outing to drop to 2-6 on the season, while Stonehill starter Patrick Nicholson went seven innings of shutout ball to improve to 6-1 overall.
