Center fielder Mike Torre was 2-for-5 with two RBI and two runs scored. Guilford made no errors on the field in the victory. Max Corbett led the effort by converting all six of his fielding opportunities.

The next day, Guilford claimed a 9-2 win over the NCT Mustangs in its regular-season finale. Sam Ametrano tossed a complete game for the Grizzlies, allowing two runs on three hits and striking out seven in his seven innings of work. Ametrano also went 2-for-3 with a walk, a double, and a run scored at the plate. Torre was 2-for-4 with two RBI and two runs scored. Once again, Guilford committed no errors in the game.
