The pitching of Beilstein and Sonoma State's Brielle Vidmar was the story, but a Seawolf run in the fifth inning proved to be the difference in the 1-0 Seawolf win.

Beilstein went the entire way in the circle, giving up the one earned run on six hits. Ashley Allen went 2 for 3 at the plate. Gonzalez went 1 for 3.
