MV DP PAcey Ford then hits into a groundout to QC SS Stinger as MV 2B Newsome is out on the force at second. QC 2B Turbeville was defensively aligned to stop the bunt and Stringer was forced to run and make the tag on second base in a close play. Meanwhile, MV pinch runner (for MV C Ross) Aubree Reder scored from third. MV CF Natalie Norwood would then seal the deal as she hits an inside the park home run scoring three. Norwood hit a line drive shot to the right of QC LF Kelsey Nash. As Nash charged forward to dive in an effort to make the out, the ball fell in front of her glove. QC CF Serenity Oden was unable to provide immediate backup and the ball rolled into the deep left field corner. Combine that with Norwood's speed and the score is now 9-0 Mount Vernon. Queen City did get on the board in the top of the fourth as QC CF Serenity Oden led the inning off with a single. Sister QC P Trinity Oden then follows suit on a single to right field. MV RF Kamryn Bolyn, while fielding the T. Oden single appeared to take her eyes off the softball as it proceeded to ricochet off her glove and into the deep right field area. Serenity would score on the play and Trinity would end up on third. QC RF Lauren Carrell (who was 2 for 3 on the afternoon) picked up her first single and scored Trinity from third. At this point the score is now MV 9 to QC 2. Mount Vernon would pick up another run in the bottom of the fourth as MV SS Summer Rogers would lead the inning off with a walk. She advanced to second with a stolen base. MV 1B Carsyn Spears then hit her second single of the game to bring the score to 10-2 with Rogers scoring from second and picking up her 3rd RBI.

Mount Vernon would end the inning with a 11-2 lead. QC 2B and lead off batter Brenna Turbeville would show fight in the top of the 7th as she accepted the first pitch from MV P Alexa Taylor and proceeded to drive the pitch to deep left center field. The ball bounced off the top of the outfield fence and provided Brenna with her first home run in this year's playoffs.
