She also pitched a complete game in the circle. For the game, Mirsky drilled two doubles, while senior shortstop Rebecca Kleiner produced a double and a single. Sophomore first baseman Michal Alge produced a double with five putouts, while sophomore utility player Liat Wasserman and senior catcher Lieba Swartz-Brownstein each produced a single.

In the second game, Farmingdale State (7-9, 5-1 Skyline) scored two runs in the top of the first to jump out to a 2-0 advantage. Yeshiva (5-12, 2-8 Skyline) responded by scoring three runs in the bottom frame. Two of those runs were driven off the bat of Alge, as she drilled a ground-rule double, scoring Mirsky and Kleiner to put the Maccabees ahead.
 
The Rams would swing momentum back into their favor in the top of the third, by scoring five runs to take the lead, 7-3, and they never looked back. Mirsky took the loss in the circle, but pitched her 15^th complete game of the season. Alge recorded two hits, while Merav Saden Barach, Mirsky, senior third baseman Erin Potasnick, and sophomore outfielder Ellie Chase each recorded one hit. Kleiner registered a stolen base.
