The Terriers used an RBI groundout and an RBI single to grab control in the second inning, snagging a 2-0 lead. The score remained that way until the bottom of the fifth inning.

Cameron Young lofted a ball to deep right field – deep enough for Leilani Coleman-Tillman to score on a sacrifice fly. A few batters later, Riley Nayadley laced a ball into right-center field for the game-tying RBI.

Taylor Suchy tallied the go-ahead run on an RBI groundout, permanently putting ETSU ahead, 3-2.

Kendall Thackston (2-5) pitched the final 5.0 innings of the game, allowing just one hit, while walking five batters.
