Warren Central (4-4) scored in every inning, and Pearl (6-5) scored in every inning except the first. WC, however, never trailed after scoring five runs in the third inning.

Pearl tied the game at 9, but Warren Central took the lead for good with four runs in the sixth inning. Sacrifice flies by Ashley Coley and Kaitlyn Mitchell keyed the inning, and two errors and two walks helped it along.
