The Eagles cut the lead in half in the fourth inning when Dani Weir blasted a home run to left field marking her seventh home run of the season.
PC junior Jennifer Maccio (Huntington Station, N.Y.) earned the win as she pitched a complete game and struck out four batters to improve to 10-7. Junior Gina Rossi (Bakersfield, Calif.) finished with two hits, while Garcia scored two runs and made a diving catch in the fifth inning.
