Game two saw the Warhawks again get off to an early 2-0 lead. ULM scored on a Stockton RBI hit in the second inning. Stockton scored in the fifth inning by a RBI single from Robbie Podorsky.

A Georgia State homer in the fifth evened the score. The Panthers would take the lead in the sixth. The home team plated three runs to grab a 5-2 lead.
