Joshmar Carbonell later scored on Farmakides' pop-up, giving the Saints a 2-0 lead.
Marymount added another run in the second when
Kaleikaumaka Grebin walked, advanced on a walk to
Shane Howie, and scored after Woodring was hit by a pitch. This extended the lead to 3-0.
In the third inning, Husson got on the board with a solo home run by Cam Rendell. However, the Saints responded with a two-run inning, highlighted by a Grebin RBI single and a sacrifice bunt by Howie that scored
Francis Swekosky. The Saints led 5-1.
The fourth inning saw Marymount explode for eight runs. Farmakides hit a two-run homer, and Grebin added an RBI single. Via delivered a two-RBI single, and Farmakides capped the inning with a two-RBI double, extending the lead to 13-1.
In the fifth, Grebin doubled, advanced on a wild pitch, and scored on Via's single, making it 14-1.
