Brown entered the series, as one might guess, a serious underdog to Princeton. The Tigers were the two time defending champion and the Bears were 0-2 against them this season. As expected, Princeton got out to an early lead, with a 3-0 advantage after three innings. But Brown scored a run in the 4th to cut into the lead, then tied it in the 5th inning. With the bases loaded, first baseman Nick Swan delivered an RBI single to give Brown the lead. The Bears would hold onto the lead and stun Princeton, winning the game 4-3!!!

Yale also entered into their series as an underdog to Lafayette. The Bulldogs were also in a late season slump and were 0-2 vs. the Leopards. Yale struck first, scoring runs in the first two innings for an early 2-0 lead. But Lafayette scored four in the 3rd and another run in the 4th to take the lead, 5-2, after four innings. The Bulldogs scored two runs in the 6th inning, closing the gap to 5-4, but the Leopards scored three more times in the game, winning it by a final of 8-4.
