After two scoreless innings, the floodgates opened for North Georgia, starting with a three-run homer from Margaret Simmons. Shelby Hammontree kept things going in the fourth with a three-run blast of her own, followed by a Gracie Mixson RBI double to push the lead to 7-0.

North Georgia scored their final five runs of the game in the fifth inning, using a Hammontree RBI double, a Georgia Blair RBI double, a Madi Perry RBI single and a homer from Madison Henry.

Kylee Smith (9-3) threw a no-hitter in the five inning game, fanning eight while walking just two.
