Taking the circle for Lumpkin were Natalie Robinson and Evee Dornhecker.  These ladies combined in throwing 98 pitches total with Robinson taking the loss.  Robinson  went 2 and 2/3 innings allowing 10 runs on 8 hits, 1 strikeout, 2 walks and 1 home run.  Only 2 of her 10 runs allowed were earned. Dornhecker in relief threw 31 pitches in 1 and 1/3 innings. The Dragonettes scored 2 runs with 1 being earned. Pickens had 3 hits and 1 walk against the second Lady Indian to enter the circle.  The Dragonettes put 11 runs up in the third and 1 in the fourth for a 12-0 shutout victory.  Reaching base on the only hits in the game for Lumpkin were Natalie Robinson and Lita Sills.Brighton Harder, Izzy Kinard and Evee Dornhecker earned walks in the game.
