It marked a huge win for Lock Haven, who was playing at home for the first time since the fall 2019 season. The victory was the first for LHU over UMass since the 2015 season and just the second Lock Haven win over the Minutewomen in school history.
• The Lock Haven University softball team was downed by Kutztown in PSAC Eastern Division play, 6-0 and 3-2.

Despite the game two loss, Warrior Run grad Madison Waltman threw an impressive game. Pitching the complete game, she scattered a mere five hits, despite facing 27 batters, and only surrendered three runs.
