HOW IT HAPPENED:
Keuka opened the scoring on the day and would take a 1-0 lead in the top of the second inning before adding to its advantage with another run in the third inning to make it 2-0.

The Soaring Eagles would get things going offensively in the bottom of the fourth inning as Brett Warden '25 delivered a single to left field. With a pair of runners on base, Morrone laced a single into center field that allowed Warden to score and make it 2-1. A single from Money through the left side allowed Signorelli to score and even things 2-2.

Elmira rallied to take a 3-2 advantage in the bottom of the fifth inning as Colin McLaughlin '22 scored from third off of a throwing error by Keuka's catcher. The Soaring Eagles would strand Matteo Salvati '25 on third as Signorelli grounded out to end the frame.

The Wolves would knock Elmira starter Angus Adams '22 out of the contest in the top of the sixth inning after taking a 4-3 lead following a run-scoring single. Carter Wisely '25 would be tasked with getting out of the frame as Keuka rallied to three more runs to take a 7-3 lead to the bottom of the sixth inning.

Following a pair of run-scoring groundouts in the bottom of the sixth inning to trim the deficit to 7-5, McLaughlin singled to score Mason Ryan '22 and make it 7-6. Signorelli followed two batters later with the bases loaded and would deliver a ground-rule double to score McLaughlin and Salvati to give the Soaring Eagles an 8-7 lead.

David Kruis '23 would enter out of the bullpen to close the game for Elmira in the top of the seventh inning.
