The # 1 Penn State Behrend Lions took on the # 4 Pitt-Greensburg Bobcats in the final game on day one.  The blue and white jumped on the Bobcats in the first as Ashley Gruber doubled to score Allison Babish.  Nikki Kaschauer made it a two run game with a triple that drove in Gruber.  Rachelle Lawrence singled to right center to score Kaschauer and give the Behrend Lions a three run lead.  The blue and white added two more runs in the inning to put the tournament hosts up 5-0. 

Five runs was more than enough for senior pitcher Julie Koman.  Koman took a perfect game into the sixth before Pitt-Greensburg's Lindsay Littler drove a ball through the left side just past a diving Lawrence to break up the perfect game.  Koman through her eleventh complete game of the year while it was her third shutout.  She allowed only one hit and struck out four to improve to 15-1 on the year.  Lia Sorce was 3-for-3 and Babish went 2-for-4 as five different Behrend players scored a run. 

Pitt-Greensburg will play Frostburg State in the second game on Saturday (Tournament Game 6), while Behrend plays Mt. Aloysius in Tournament Game 8.
