Game One:
 
Game one was a pitchers duel for the first three and a half innings of play. The Hawks were able to score first in the bottom of the fourth inning, pushing across two runs to take a 2-0 lead. The Green and Gold answered back in the top half of the fifth when Meghan Cullen doubled to left field scoring Kathleen Laskey.
 
With one out in the top of the seventh, the Golden Eagles still trailed 2-1, but Laskey was able to tie the contest up crushing her first home run of the season over the left field wall.
 
The two counterparts remained scoreless for the next 2.5 innings of play. New Paltz won the game in the bottom of the tenth inning, scoring on a wild pitch.
