Burke limited Eagle Point (14-4, 8-4 MWL) to five hits in the opener, then avoided too much damage after allowing nine hits in the nightcap. She also had two hits in each game for the Spartans (17-4, 11-3), who are tied for first place in the league with Churchill. Eagle Point sophomore Megan Ayres matched Burke with 10 strikeouts in Game 1 in her four-hitter, but five errors proved to be the team’s undoing. In Game 2, Ayres struck out three and allowed six hits with four errors behind her. Burke fanned nine in Game 2. Kylene Briggs had two hits to lead EP in the opener, with Kaylie Meerten doubling in the first and scoring on an RBI single by Ayres. In Game 2, Briggs had three hits and scored twice, while Ayres added two hits and two RBIs. Tiffani Mitchell and Shaelynn Grady each drove in a run for the Eagles.
