Junior Phillip Coulson hurled a complete-game, four-hit shutout. He struck out eight, walked none and threw just 60 pitches in an efficient performance as 48 of his pitches went for strikes or were put in play.

The purple and gold scored three runs in the bottom of the first inning and were never headed. The Bulldogs added two more runs in the third to build a 5-0 lead.
