Already over the run-limit, the Govs would add another run in the third inning to cruise to a 1-0 season start.
From the box score, the Govs tallied 13 total hits with nine exttra base hits to overwhelm the Golden Eagles offensively.

Eight of the nine extra base hits were two-baggers seeing Ava Nelson with two doubles, Presley Spies, Micah Buffalo, Millie Johnson, Charlie Hull, Ally Keyes and Taryn Spruill with the rest. On top of Nelson’s two doubles, she finished with five RBI leading her team.
