SVSU's Paige Kolinski smacked a two-run home run in the fifth to make it 5-0.

The Cardinals tacked on three more runs in the sixth on two walks, along with a single and a WSU fielding error.

The Warriors lone run came in the bottom of the sixth as senior Kiley Lewandowski (Ypsilanti, Mich. / Lincoln) had a leadoff double down the left field line for her third hit of the game.  She moved to third when freshman Logan Forman (Brantford, Ont.) singled on the 11th pitch of her at bat, and scored on a two-out single by sophomore Sasha Buckberger (Oakville, Ont.)

IN THE CIRCLE
Freshman Sydney Long (Grand Blanc, Mich.) started for WSU and allowed five earned runs on eight hits in 4.1 innings.  She struck out five and walked two.  Buckberger hurled the final 2.2 innings and allowed three runs (one earned) on two hits with one strikeout to two walks.

Emily Depew (9-4) tossed the first six innings for SVSU and limited Wayne State to one earned run on five hits.  She struck out eight and walked two.  Aalana Kimble retired three of the four batters she faced in the seventh, allowing just one walk.

LEADING THE WARRIORS
