Sanchez led the team with 2 hits against the cougars, the first coming in the first at bat of the game when she sent a shot into shallow left. Sanchez picked up her second hit in the fourth on a groundball up the middle. The final Lions hit came from Katie Manley in the top of the 6th when she came in to pinch hit. Manley sent her hit up the middle to give LMU the final baserunner of the game.
