The Lakers came from behind late to win both games by identical 5-4 final scores. Game one brought some drama with it, as Jessica Lininger led off the bottom of the 7th with a single, moved to 2nd on Chelsea Cramer's sacrifice bunt, advanced to third on a throwing error, and crossed home on a game-tying RBI single from Jill Wildermuth. In the bottom of the 8th, Alain Pummell singled with two out, went to 2nd on a throwing error, and scored the winning run when Michelle Herren singled. Wildermuth also picked up the win on the mound. The Lakers found magic once more in game 2, as Herren led off the bottom of the 7th inning with a triple and then scoring the winning run on a passed ball.
Wildermuth picked up a 2nd win on the mound, striking out 9 while giving up just 4 hits.
Offensively on the day Wildermuth 5 hits with a triple and that game-winning RBI. Julianne Minnich had 3 hits and 2RBI's in the first game, and in game 2 Michelle Herren had a triple to go along with 3 runs scored, Cramer had a double and an RBI, and Kerstin Harmon and Becca Cooper each had hits.
