The Titans jumped out to a quick lead in the top of the first as they converted five hits into three runs. The damage could have been more, but Matt Rugolo fielded a ball in left and threw out a Westminster runner at the plate to end the inning.

Keuka College took advantage of a leadoff walk in the bottom of the second to get one run back. Shane Helmstadt worked a walk and advanced on a wild pitch. Then in his first collegiate at-bat, Connor Springer roped a double for his first hit, scoring Helmstadt to make it 3-1.

Westminster regained their three-run advantage in the top third, but the Wolves scored that run right back. Matt Vaccaro led off with an infield single to second and promptly stole second. Josh Tryon plated Vaccaro with a single to make it 4-2. Later in the inning, Brady Booher delivered a two-run home run to tie the game at 4-4.

The back-and-forth continue as Westminster got a two-run home run of their own in the fourth to regain the lead. The Titans would add five runs in the top of the seventh. Keuka College got two back in the bottom of the inning but that would close the scoring on the afternoon. Westminster would continue onto the 11-6 victory over Keuka College.
