With one out, Mathis walked and raced all the way around to score when an infield single by Singsank was deflected into foul territory in left. Singsank wound up at third on the play and scored the tying run on a sacrifice fly by Trotter Harlan.
Hayden Thomas, the third Cougar pitcher, kept Hofstra off the board over the next two innings, retiring all six batters he faced including three strikeouts to pick up his fourth win of the year. Mathis doubled twice in addition to his two key bases on balls to extend his hitting streak to 14 games.
