Michael Forgione had a good day at the plate for LCC, going 2 for 4 with an RBI and a run scored. The Devils scored single runs in the second and third, but the offense was turned away after that.
Justin Jacobs had two hits and Peter Leece had a hit and an RBI.
Tanner Olson was charged with his first loss of the season, going seven innings, allowing five runs. He struck out six and walked one.
Gabe Ihrig came in in the 8th inning and got the Devils out of a bases loaded jam without further damage.
