After four scoreless innings of play, Ferrum got the first runs of the game on Bryce Thacker's two-run single through the left side with the bases loaded. A wild pitch would score Clayton Michael, to extend the Panther lead to 3-0. Slade Keyser's sacrifice bunt scored Noah Basham for the final run of the inning. 

In the top of the eighth Shawn Baxter's two-run double to right field scored Michael and Thacker to put Ferrum up 6-0. One batter later, Keyser doubled to left center to score pinch runner Jaden Johnson. 

The game was then put on hold and suspended due to lightning in the area. Play will be resumed in the bottom of the eighth inning when the two teams are slated to play on April 23 at Panther Field.
