The Huskies traveled to Smithfield, R.I. to face the Bryant Bulldogs in a non-conference game.

Bryant built their lead back to two in the bottom half of the seventh against Russ Lloyd who came in for JT Ross. The Bulldogs scored off a wild pitch that allowed the runner from second to advance to third and the third base runner to score.

Things would look dim for the Huskies going into the ninth but the Huskies offense began to churn as Frank Compagnone and James Donaldson both reached base.
