A two-out rally gave Stockton the lead at 2-1 in the second inning when Dominique Dorris (Mantua/Clearview) doubled, Casey Schieda (Monroe Twp./Monroe Twp) reached on an error, then both runners scored on a Nicole Tomo (Cedar Grove/Cedar Grove) single.
 
Stockton tacked on another run in the bottom of the fifth as Cuffari singled and eventually came around to score on an error to make it 3-1. The Bobcats tied the game 3-3 the next inning, plating two runs on four hits. Tomo threw out the potential go-ahead run at the plate from center field to end the inning. The Ospreys took over in the final inning, scoring four times on three hits and a rare two-RBI sacrifice fly by Cuffari to set the final score at 7-3 in favor of the Ospreys.
 
Torp ran her record to 3-1 with six strong innings, giving up five hits, one earned run and whiffing five without walking a batter. Samantha Shockey (Deptford/Deptford) tossed the last inning to preserve the victory.
