Maddy Fregia then walked to load the bases.
Kaitlyn Key followed with a single to score Frauenberger, and the score was 1-0.

A hitter later, it was Alissa Aragonez with a single to score two more, and the lead was 5-0.
Emmah Hebert then reached on a fielder’s choice, and an Emma Smart single would follow that, and the Lady Hornets had six on the board.
Frauenberger reached on an error to score another, and then Schulz hit a sacrifice fly to score
Smart, and the advantage was 8-0.
Fregia finished the scoring by reaching on an infield hit, bringing Frauenberger home, and Hardin had a 9-0 lead.
