Eight different positions in the lineup record hits, including two each from Paige Rocha and Lauren Yslava.

Jenna Little and Grace Lueke each had two RBIs. Jenna Herron and Madison Kearns both scored two runs.

Harley Limberger came off the bench for an RBI single in the seventh, adding a key insurance run.

"We were seeing the ball well and were hitting with batter's counts," added Sorden. "We had a number of people step up in the lineup.

Kelsey Ray earned the victory while Rylie Pindel added her second save in as many days.

"Rylie shut then down today like she did yesterday," added Sorden.
