Olivia Darracott had three hits and three RBIs and scored a run. Brooke Daily had two hits and two RBIs and scored two runs. Shaylee Weiting had two hits and scored twice. Catie Dawson also scored twice.

In the Sheffield game, Tharptown broke open a tight game in the bottom of the fifth inning, scoring five runs to beat the Bulldogs 7-4.

Cameron struck out 12 batters, allowing three earned runs on three hits. She also doubled and had an RBI at the plate.

Weiting, Morgan Vandiver, Madison Vandiver, Kyndall Morgan, Dawson, Harleigh Borden and Macy Petree all scored one run each in the game.
