GAME TWO - The Aggies again plated a run in the top of the first but FDU got it back in the bottom half on a RBI single from Core.  The Devils tallied two runs in the second thanks to a RBI double from Seminerio and a RBI single by Oliveto.  Delaware Valley cut it to 3-2 in the top of the third but FDU made it 5-2 in the bottom of the third on a two-run double by Seminerio.  The Aggies got to within 5-3 in the top of the fifth but the Devils tacked on an insurance run in the bottom of the sixth on sacrifice fly by Core.
