MORAGA, Calif. — Saint Mary's (5-5) came back after being down early to San Jose State and momentarily held a lead over the Spartans but a big 4-run inning late in the game would give SJSU their first win of the season, 7-4.
The Spartans (1-3) scored two in the first but SMC immediately answered with a run of their own in the bottom of the frame. Marissa Montelongo smacked a double to centerfield, stole third, and then came around to score on a squeeze bunt to put the Gaels on the board.
