Franklin & Marshall needed to sweep Dickinson, and get some help, to advance to the Centennial Conference playoffs.

Kaitlin Zampino gave F&M its second hit with a single to center and
Rachel Laufer pinch ran for Zampino. Laufer moved to second on
Caitlin Brust's single before a double steal put them in scoring position with one out. A pop up and strike out by the next two F&M batters ended the threat.
The game remained scoreless until the bottom of the tenth when Carly Jordan's game-winning single plated Jess Haklar, who started the inning on second, from third.
