Frostburg State could seemingly do nothing wrong in the batter's box while the Pioneer pitching staff had unusual troubles finding the zone. Though the Glenville State offense did push back via a Colby Guy solo homer and scoring in multiple fashions, it was simply not enough to rival the Bobcat's fire on offense with the visitors securing a 26-4 win in game one.
