The Foothillers extended their lead in the bottom of the second inning as Brown once again did the damage as she hit a bases clearing triple that scored Jessica Medlin (3-3, 2R, 2 2B), Appenzeller and Bond which made it 5-0. The next batter Samaria Roope (2-2, RBI) singled to score Brown, Jessica Medlin into run for Roope, Aly Allman (2-4, R, 3 RBI, 2 3B) followed with a smash triple to score Medlin to push the lead to 7-0.
