The Eagles answered with an unearned run in the second to even the score at one. FLC threatened in the home half of the inning when Julia Roberts doubled and Hannah Gondini walked, but a foul out ended the threat.

In the third, Elemen set the hits record when she singled to left-center. FLC again threatened when Dana Dwyer singled before a groundout ended the inning.
The game would remain tied into the seventh when Chadron State was able to plate three runs on three hits, along with two errors for the 4-1 lead. FLC got a single from Gondini in their last at-bat, but weren't able to get anymore baserunners.
