GAME 1
Crumley, the reigning MCAC Pitcher of the Week, tossed a one-hitter as the Bruins shut out Peru, 4-0 in the opener.

Crumley recorded 10 strikeouts and allowed no walks while notching her second complete-game shutout of the year.
After a scoreless first three innings, Gansz led off the fourth inning with a solo homer for the first run of the game. Nikki Sedlak's two-out two-run single to center field gave the Bruins a 3-0 advantage in the fourth.
The Bruins added an insurance run in the top of the seventh when Erica McCoy stole home.
