Dominican fell in their opening game to #3 Caldwell University, 6-2, but won an elimination game against #7 Bloomfield College, 5-3.

Miscia finished the game with three hits.
Game Two: The DC offense scored three runs in their first at-bat as O'Reilly led off the inning with a solo home run and two batters later first basemen Madison Walker (Southampton, N.J.) blasted a two run home run over the center field fence for the early 3-0 lead.
Bloomfield got on the board with two runs in the fifth inning, but the Lady Chargers increased the lead to 4-2 in their half of the fifth on O'Reilly's second home run of the day.
The Bears scored a run in the sixth and Dominican once again countered in the bottom of the inning on the RBI single to right field from Elizabeth Tolkan (Poughkeepsie, N.Y.) for the final 5-3 win.
