Sophomore Kelby Lewis relieved Cobb in the bottom of the fourth frame, striking out three in two innings of work.

Seniors Hilary Newlon and Bryona Knight were both perfect from the plate, registering four hits apiece. Newlon was a double shy of the cycle, with two singles, a triple and home run. Knight was a home run shy of the cycle, with two base knocks, a double and a triple.
