Game 1 Recap:

Penn State Schuylkill rallied from an early deficit to top Bucks County 5-2 in the opener. After falling behind 2-0, the Lions responded with a three-run third inning fueled by Brenan Adams' clutch 2-RBI double. Aidan Barner held down the Bucks with a gritty 106-pitch start, and Conner Licklider slammed the door with three dominant innings of relief, striking out five. Schuylkill capitalized on seven stolen bases and defensive miscues to seal the win.

• Brenan Adams: 2B, 2 RBI

• Brandon Pupek: 4 SB, 2 BB

• Aidan Barner: 5 IP, 2 ER, 4 K

• Conner Licklider: 3 IP, 5 K, 0 R
