Fullerton went down in order in the ninth. Dan Mead worked the final three innings for the victory for Pomona (1-8). Erik Silvey allowed two unearned runs in the ninth for the loss.

Trevor Neighbors had three hits and Mate Borgogno and Brent Mayne had two hits each for Fullerton (5-4). Rex Peters, a senior first baseman, singled to extend his hitting streak to nine games.
