Pitchers Emily Huhta (Albuquerque, NM, Manzano High School, Lamar Community College) and Bri Robles (Mesa, AZ, Mesa High School, Phoenix College) split time in the circle. Together they struck out six batters and allowed only three earned runs after the Mustang defense committed three errors. The two teams combined for seven errors in the game and 33 hits. One key strikeout was recorded by Robles. With the bases loaded in the top of the seventh, two outs, and the game-winning batter at the plate, Robles threw three consecutive strikes that the batter took at chance at to record the third out.
