Mountain Lions Win Their 4th Straight at Home in a Victory Over the Grand Canyon Lopes

On the strength of .267 hitting the Mountain Lions won their fourth and final match of the Hyatt Place Mountain Lion Invitational against the Grand Canyon Lopes 3-0, securing their position as tournament champions.
