Kyle Williams handed the ball to Tyler Cornett to start game one and Cornett cruised to a 1-2-3 first inning, setting the tone for his seven innings to the tune of one earned run, two walks, 11 strikeouts, and just five hits allowed. The Patriots scored two unearned runs on Cornett's watch as the Black and Gold saw a pair of errors in this game.
