Shannon Cruz pitched seven innings and gave up four earned runs in a 12-5 victory over Dupage CC. Diana Moorman had four RBI on two singles and a triple, while Cruz knocked in three runs.
In a second victory over Dupage, the Lakers were down by one until the fifth inning when Cruz, Cierra Marshall and Breanna Wilson hit three straight singles to knock in three runs. Sophomore Katie Basmagy got the win, giving up one earned run.
The Lakers ran out of gas in their third game of the day, an 0-5 loss to the Community College of Morris County.
