Calvin Sanft led the way with a solid 2-for-3 performance, while Nielsen, Tim Callahan, Braelen Silva, and Bobby Long each chipped in a hit. No RBIs, five runners left on base, and limited pressure on the Chargers pitcher caused was the downfall for Lasell.

Production came from everywhere in the order. Jeremy Angeles knocked in a run, Braelen Silva added an RBI double, and Connor Freitas and Nicholas Groussis each contributed run-scoring hits. On the bases, the Lasers were aggressive and disruptive, swiping multiple bags, highlighted by Callahan's four steals and Nielsen's two, putting constant pressure on the defense.

On the mound, it was a true staff effort. Freitas earned the win, allowing just two runs over 2.2 innings. Jeremy Wacker was dominant in relief, tossing 3.1 scoreless innings and shutting down any momentum from the opposition. Joshua Cavas and Tommy Flanagan closed things out effectively, limiting damage and securing the win.
