In the top of the sixth Cino led off with a walk. Then, things went downhill for Delaware starting pitcher Makayla Elkenberry who held Toms River to just one run in the first five innings.

Brianna Troy walked, then with one out, facing cleanup hitter Kelly Forester, Delaware intentionally walked her.

With bases loaded Ballaccomo hit a hard ground ball that got through the infield into right field. Cino and Troy scored on the play, giving New Jersey a 3-2 lead.

For insurance, Eisman hit a two-rbi single to left, clearing the bases and giving New Jersey a 5-2 lead and Rasmussen doubled to center to drive in Eisman.
