Michaela Edenfield walked and a groundout advanced the runners for Kalei Harding. The second double of the inning, off the bat of Harding, brought in both runners. A lineout for out number two brought Hallie Wacaser up, who singled for an RBI of her own. The first inning ended with a score of 5-0.
A 1-2-3 inning from starting pitcher Kathryn Sandercock had the ‘Noles right back in the dugout for the 2nd inning.
