Lord was the starting pitcher as Hampden rolled out to a 7-1 lead in the second inning and never trailed the rest of the way. Lord gave way to a reliever and Orono closed the gap to 10-9 with two runs in the top of the fifth inning. Hampden was unable to add to their lead in the bottom half of the inning and took a one run lead into the final inning.
