Jenna Ergle led the charge with a one-out walk, which was followed by Emme Martinez ripping her second double of the season. With two on and one out, in stepped catcher Gianna Boccagno, who poked a single trough the ride side to plate BC's first two runs of the season.
The Lady Demons responded in the bottom of the first, putting two runners on with one out. Riley Cantrell stepped to the plate and singled to the right side, scoring two NSU runners. CC Cook escaped the inning with a lineout and a groundout.
Skip ahead to the bottom of the second, where the Lady Demons put three runners on with no outs. Cantrell at the plate, a wild pitch was thrown that scored the go ahead run from third base. On the next pitch, Cantrell flied out to right field, and Jules Trevino threw out the runner attempting to tag to third base, ending the inning.
NSU extended its lead in the bottom of the third, after loading the bases with two outs. Hayley Barbazon forced a walk to score the fourth run of the game for the Lady Demons. With the bases still loaded and one out, NSU forced a walk and scored on a wild pitch to extend its lead, 6-2.
The Lady Demons started the bottom of the fifth inning with two walks and an infield single to load the bases with no outs. Kaitlyn St. Clair stepped to the plate and singled to the left side to score the runner from third. Cantrell added to her impressive day, collecting an RBI ground out to second base.
