• KSC added two more in the second when Hartmann singled Libby home and scored on a Montclair State error.  RBI hits from Springfield and Reggione made it 8-1 in the bottom of the fourth.
• Dube was outstanding for the second straight start, retiring 12 in a row from the second to the sixth innings.  He allowed one extra base hit and got Justin Empifiano to line into a double play to end the sixth inning.
• Alan Schiff and Nick Nowak each pitched one inning of relief.
