Karlie Twisselman launched an RBI single to put the Saints up 2-0. Truman State answered with four runs in the bottom of the frame.

Truman drove in two runs on a fielder’s choice and a sac fly for a 6-4 run in the second. Maryville got one run back in the third when Kelsey Kapitzke lashed an RBI single to drive in Kaela Bennett. However, Truman State tacked on three runs in the bottom of the inning and added insurance runs later to improve to 4-0 on the season.
 
For the first time this season, Maryville’s opponent scored the first run of the game as North Alabama struck for two runs in the top of the second. UNA padded its lead with three more scores in the third. The Saints answered when Kapitzke launched a three-run homer to pull Maryville to 5-3. North Alabama hung a crooked number in the fourth.
