While it was Dani Fincham, pitching for the Bulldogs in both games, earning the win in game one but falling in game two. Holton garnered four runs on five hits in the matchup, with the first run coming in the bottom of the second inning after a lead off double by Kelsey Helus, who came around to score that inning. The other three runs for Holton were plated in the fourth inning as the capitalized on a few errors by the Bulldogs that inning.

Marysville offense after plating six runs in the first game left seven baserunners on the pads in game two as Holton pitcher Christa Merriman and the Wildcat defense, got out of every jam presented to them. Christa not only earned the win as the pitcher, but also had a two-out two-run single in the fourth, while Cassidy Merriman added a triple and a run scored on the day.
