OMAHA, Neb. -- Kelli Finan's walk-off three-run home run lifted the Creighton softball team past Southeast Missouri, 6-3, on Friday afternoon during the Bluejays' home-opener at the Creighton Sports Complex.

Creighton improved to 9-6, while the Redhawks fell to 8-8.

With two outs and runners at first and second following an intentional walk of Courtney Sandell, Finan fell behind in the count 0-2. The junior fouled off two pitches before launching an inside pitch over the left-field wall to propel Creighton to a three-run victory.

Finan finished the day 2-for-3 with four RBIs and two runs scored to lead the Bluejays.
