Game 3 UW-Superior 8, MLC 0 (6 innings)

MLC would have difficulty getting much going offensively again in the series' final game, as Bella Garley picked up her second win and struck out 10.

Jess Horn had two of MLC's three hits in the game, and the senior gave up four earned runs in six innings on the mound.

Despite the loss, the MLC defense played well in both games, especially in the outfield, with Hannah Ott and Sarah Yonkovich making nice plays with the glove throughout the pair of contests. Yonkovich had 11 putouts combined at the center field position, and Rachel McCaughna had a good series at third base, finishing with six assists on the left side of the infield.
