GAME 1: STILLMAN 6, POINT 1

Lauren Haskins drew a leadoff walk in the bottom of the first and stole two bags before scoring on an error that placed Bailie Seales on base. In the second inning, Carolyn Carter doubled in her first Stillman at bat and scored on a single up the middle by Anniston Jones. Haskins later singled in another run to score Katelyn Lankford.

Point's only run came in the top of th fourth on a solo home run by Skye Loftin.

Mary Michael Burnham (0-1) recorded the loss for Point, allowing three runs of seven hits and a walk.

GAME 2: STILLMAN 3, POINT 2

All scoring came in the third inning of the nightcap, as Point's Katelyn Jiles and Stillman's Faith Byram were locked in a pitchers' duel.

Point strung together three consecutive hits to lead off the third inning and load the bases. A wild pitch plated the first run before Kayla Wyatt delivered a ground ball RBI to put the Skyhawks in front, 2-0. 

In the bottom of the third inning, Haskins busted up Jiles' no-hit bid with a triple to left center. The play scored Katelynn Madison, who was hit by a pitch to start the inning. Seales followed with an RBI single to tie the game, followed by a Bubel double to put two in scoring positions. Seales gave Stillman the lead when she tagged and scored on a Pennington sac fly to center field. 

Boso took over in the circle for Stillman in the sixth inning. Point threatened with two on and no outs in the top of the seventh, but Boso was able to record a sac bunt, strikeout and ground ball back to the circle to escape the jam and record the save. Boso struck out two and walked two in two hitless innings.

Byram allowed two earned runs off eight hits and no walks through five innings for her first Stillman win.

Haskins, Seales, Bubel, Lankford and Savannah Mayes each had one hit in the game.
