The Paladins come out to start the game with some mental errors which would cost them in the long run. Canisius gets on the board first getting two runs on a few errors by the Paladins. The Paladins do get back in the game scoring two runs and tying it up in the first. The Paladins would not score another run till the 4th inning, but Canisius keeps getting on base and gets four more runs and gets the win 6-3.
