Beth Schnurbusch was charged with the loss for Quincy, allowing four runs on seven hits with five strikeouts and five walks. 

In game two, Brooke Allgood allowed a run in the top of the first inning against Missouri Southern, but didn't surrender any more, improving to 2-1 on the season. The junior allowed just six hits with four strikeouts and one walk in seven innings. 

The Lady Statesmen tied the game in the bottom of the fourth inning with an RBI-single by Eikner scoring Courtney Chism, who came in to pinch-run for Courtney Clark.
