In game two, STAC scored three runs in the third inning to bring them within five, 8-3.  Ruiz led off the inning with a single.  Michelle Sasso reached on an error and later both runners scored on two more Molloy errors.  Ferriello hit an RBI single to score the third run.  The Lady Spartans added a run in the bottom of the fifth behind another Ferriello RBI single. 

STAC will be back in action on Sunday when they host Chestnut Hill for a double header beginning at 12:00 noon.
