Endicott kept it rolling in the second getting two more runs in the second and four more in the top of the third to take a 10-1 advantage. 
  • The Hawks would not go down without a fight getting a pair of runs in the bottom of the third on a two RBI double by senior Anita Farkash (Seaford, N.Y.) to trim the deficit to 10-3.
