GAME 1: Davenport 6, Kentucky Wesleyan 0

DU scored in the top of the first in the second contest, but Lexie Mullen knocked a two-out double, scoring Meredith Daunhauer and tying the game. Jaclyn Parker followed with a RBI single giving the Panthers a 2-1 lead.
 
The Wesleyan lead grew to 4-1 after Mullen powered another shot into the power alley and over the left-field fence for a two-run homerun. The Panthers added another run in the fourth to build a 5-1 lead. Autumn Grady continued to be the kryptonite for Davenport as she pitched out of a jam in the fifth, allowing just one run.
