SCC continued to build momentum in the third inning, as Allen and Ruppert each went deep to extend the lead to 7 to 4. After early action on the mound, the Rams' bullpen stepped up in a big way. Ellison, Ramirez, and Stringer combined for strong relief appearances to shut down Robeson the rest of the way and preserve the win. Ruppert led the offense with three RBIs, while Suggs paced the team with two hits.
