In game one, the Pointers put up four runs in the first inning to jump out to an early advantage. The Big Blue chipped away at the deficit in the second when Emily Kobel's single up the middle plated Kendallyn Davison. Then, Abby Willis snuck a double down the left field line to score Charley Condill and Kobel to bring the Big Blue within a run. 

But, the Pointers would tack on another run in the third and two more in the fourth to secure a 3-6 win over Millikin.

The Panthers jumped back in the lead in the bottom of the inning as the home team on the scoreboard when an Ashley Fulton double plated LauRie Harmless. In the back and forth game, the Big Blue would scratch one across in the sixth on an infield single by Condill that scored Davison.

In the top of the seventh, Haley Willan singled to right center with two outs, then pinch runner Abbey Matthews took over, advancing to third on a single by Anna Enlow. But, a strikeout would send the game to the bottom of the inning with the score still knotted at 2-2.
