Tied a two in the second inning, FSC used a big five-run bottom of the second to pull away from the Panthers. KWC scored a run in both the sixth and seventh inning to attempt a comeback, but the Mocs answered with a three-run bottom of the seventh to put the game away. 

Kyle Werries went 3-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored. Ben Wilcoxson added an RBI while Jaret Humphrey scored two runs of his own. Nolan Johnson (0-1) took the loss for the Panthers.
