Then in the 4th, SU would stretch their lead to 5-1 after Katie Sebbane would rope one deep to left for a two run shot. The lead would prove to be more than enough for Rachel Johnson, who pitched a complete game, while giving up 3 hits and striking out 12.

In the night cap, the Gulls would be the ones to strike first, after after getting one in the bottom of the first. Their lead would grow to 5-0 after 4 runs came in in the 3rd, highlighted by an RBI triple from Sebbane. Annah Brittingham would do the rest on the bump, throwing a complete game, 2 hitting while fanning 8.
