Game 1
The Cavaliers took an early lead with single runs in the third and fourth innings. Senior Darian Caputo put Cabrini on the board first, as the senior drew a walk before scoring on a double by freshman Faith Pitsikoulis.

The Cavaliers doubled their lead in the fourth when freshman Kadirah Williams scored on a single by sophomore Olivia Young.

Widener responded in the bottom of the fourth, tying the game at 2-2, where it would remain until a wild 10-run seventh inning.

The Cavaliers headed into the bottom of the seventh with a seemingly comfortable 7-2 lead, but the home team had other ideas.

The Pride posted five runs on five hits, including back to back home runs, to send the game to extra innings. 

Cabrini struck first in the 10th, as Caputo's sacrifice fly plated Stairiker.

Consecutive bunts evened the score for Widener, before a two out single drove in the winning run.

Stairiker went 3-5 at the plate with two RBI's and suffered the loss in the pitcher's circle after tossing 9.2 innings and allowing six earned runs on 11 hits with five strikeouts. 

Pitsikoulis, Seamen and junior Alexandria Schell added two hits each, with Pitsikoulis driving in a pair of runs.
 
Game 2
The Pride carried its 10th inning momentum into the nightcap, jumping ahead with three runs in the first and four in the fourth to build a 7-0 lead.

Cabrini began its comeback in the fifth, as a Seamen single scored Caputo. The Cavaliers added two more runs in the sixth. A Caputo infield single knocked in Schell before sophomore Aysiah Cintron's double scored Caputo.

The Blue and White comeback attempt came to an end in the seventh, as freshman Allison Martin's run was the Cavaliers' lone run in the frame.  

Schell accounted for two of Cabrini's six his in the nightcap, including a triple. Sophomore Casey Scheuren suffered the loss after allowing five earned runs on nine hits in six innings.
