    MLC was held scoreless through 3 innings, but regathered their offensive stride with a 6-run fourth inning. The Knights had been trailing 5-0 up until that moment, but took their first lead of the game with the big inning. From there the Wildcats were unable to keep up with the MLC bats and the Knights marched on to their 14-10 win.

Jordyn Heckendorf sured up the clean up spot in the lineup and knocked in 2 RBI. Meanwhile, Anna Busch and Hannah Ott each contributed with 3 base hits that further displayed the well balanced attack of MLC's offense.
