Game 2 - Cal State Fullerton 3, Boston 12
The Titans lost in their second game of the evening against Boston University, 12-3.
The Terriers had two big innings where they capitalized on two Titan errors that led to the lopsided victory.

Myka Sutherlin drew the start and allowed four runs (zero earned) on four hits, four walks, and six strikeouts.
Boston took the lead in the fourth inning. After getting bases loaded, a ground ball was hit to Myka Sutherlin for what should've been the third out. However she bounced the ball to first which eventually led to four runs scoring.
The Titans responded with three runs in the fifth inning. Megan Delgadillo once again had a ball to left field misplayed by the defender that scored two runs.
