In the opener, Stacey Preambo went 2-for-3 with three RBI and a home run while Kelley Vaxmonsky was 3-for-4. Cassy Shiffer was 2-for-3 with a double and two RBI while Kristin Brady added a base hit.

Winning pitcher Sarah Genewski allowed two earned runs with six strikeouts in seven innings. She also helped her own cause with a two-run double. Shiffer, Vaxmonsky, and Annie Drimones all added base hits for the Lady Monarchs.
