The Fighting Scots bats came alive, but a young pitching staff would allow 16 hits and also suffer from eight errors. Edinboro trailed in the slugfest just 7-5 after four innings, but the Falcons exploded for seven runs in the top of the fifth inning. The Scots kept battling back with three runs in the bottom of the fifth and a run in the sixth, but Bentley tacked on four runs in the top of the seventh to pull away.
