At the dish, Maurer was 2 for 4 with a double, while teammate Katie Hayes was 2 for 4 with a solo home run in the sixth, and Grace Tostrud was 1 for 4 with a two-run home run in the seventh.

In Game 2, Maurer gave up nine runs (eight earned) on six hits, including another Boachi homer, and four walks in 2.2 innings. Grace Tostrud tossed the final 4.1 innings, giving up just a hit while walking six and striking out three.

At the dish, Tostrud and Maurer were each 2 for 4, with Maurer scoring two runs. Hailey Betthauser, Sloane Ambrose and Lizzy Snider doubled for the Cheesemakers, who led 1-0 after the first inning but trailed 9-1 after the third.
