With a 3-0 lead, the Homestead Mustangs (7-1) kept their defense strong until the fifth inning when shortstop Hannah Bundy (‘14) hit a single into center field, bringing in two runs for her team. Despite momentum in the fifth inning,  the Lady Vikes remained scoreless in the remainder of the game.

With a couple hits, the Mustangs were able to increase their lead, ending the game with a score of 6-2.
