Behind a no-hitter by junior Shelly Madick, the Crimson (31-13) dashed off a 4-0 win in game one and then pulled out a 4-2 victory in game two, with Madick coming on for the save. Madick moved to 16-4 on the season with a complete-game no-no in the opener. She faced just one batter over the minimum, walking one and striking out seven.

As a schoolboy, Liviu Librescu survived the Holocaust; but as a professor more than six decades later, he died blocking a classroom door to save his students.
