NO. 13 UINDY 8 - SOUTHERN INDIANA 0 (6 INN.)
The Greyhounds posted a pair of runs in the bottom half of the second inning. DeVyn Barker led things off by reaching base after being hit by a pitch. She was sacrificed over by Kelsey Rummel, and scored after a fielding error by the USI shortshop allowed Jamie Keltz on base. Keltz came home on a fielding error in left field on a double by Che' Hanebrink to put UIndy up 2-0.

Three more runs found their way across in the third inning for the Greyhounds, with Cori Eckerle's walk opening the frame. A sacrifice by Shelby Owens put Eckerle at second, and an infield single by Barker sent her to third.

Eckerle came home on a steal play at second, and the other two UIndy runs of the inning scored on a double to left center off the bat of Keltz.

UIndy put up a single run in the fourth, with Eckerle again being the one to step on home plate. The Greyhound catcher led off the inning with another walk, and came home on a double to left center by Owens to run the score to 6-0 in favor of UIndy.

A pair of runs in the bottom of the six wrapped up the win for the Greyhounds. A sacrifice fly to right by Keltz brought in the first run of the inning, with Audrey Ernst crossing the plate. A walk-off single to right center by Hanebrink scored Barker, who singled to right center to reach base.
