How It Happened
 
* After Gordon scored two runs in the top half of the first, the Nittany Lions responded with a four-spot in the bottom of the inning.  Abington drew two bases loaded walks from Josh Baar and Gabe Marrero, while Montana Milward and Donato Incollingo each drove in runs in the inning.
 
* The Fighting Scots tied the game at 4-4 in the third with another pair of runs as Alex Razzaboni drove in two runs with a two-out base hit.
 
* Abington once again responded with four runs in the bottom of the inning to take an 8-4 advantage.  Sean Doherty drove in the first of his six runs before Shane Fillman connected on a three-run shot to cap the scoring.
 
* The Nittany Lions broke the game open in the bottom of the fifth with five more runs coming across.  The first three batters in the inning reached base and then was followed by back-to-back walks by Incollingo and Eric Rollins.  Marrero was then hit by a pitch as another run crossed the plate.  Doherty then drove in a pair of runs with a double down the left field line to make the score 12-4.
 
* Abington tacked on three more runs in the fifth highlighted by a two-run triple by Doherty.  The Nittany Lions scored seven runs in the bottom of the sixth and added three more bases loaded walks to account for runs.  Abington drew 13 walks as a team.
