In the opener, the Titans (12-4, 4-0 WIAC) jumped out for four runs in the first and added three more in the second and two more in the fourth to take a 9-0 lead. Stout's only run of the game came in the fifth inning when Sara Griebach's sacrifice bunt scored
Kaylee Francois from third.
In the second game, the Titans built up a 4-0 lead, getting two runs in the second and single runs in the third and fifth.
Stout (9-11, 1-3 WIAC) got on the scoreboard in the sixth. Back-to-back infield singles by
