This game was followed by an outing against the Tuscola Lady Warriors. 

The Lady Warriors drew first blood with 4 runs in the second inning.  The home team responded with two of its own in the third inning, but the offense was stymied even though they had the bases loaded in the fifth; no more runs. 

The Lady Warriors would add two more runs in each of the fifth and seventh innings to win 8-2 over the home team. 

The Maroons offense was led by Ashley Armstrong (#5), the pitcher, hitting 3-3 from the plate ,and Heidi Humble (#27), who was 3-4 with a home run.
