In the second game,
Tori Jolley ripped a three-run home run to left-center in the bottom of the first inning and that would be all the offense Flagler would need.
However in the fourth, the Saints struck again for five runs. Jolley hit a two-run homer off the scoreboard and
Stacy Piagno (St. Augustine, Fla., Pedro Menendez HS) socked a three-run shot to right-center to give Flagler an 8-0 lead.
Lynn was able to push across a pair of runs in the top of the fifth and Flagler added one more run in the sixth.
