The Mules held a 1-0 lead after sophomore Ella Wilcox singled home a run in the top of the first before Oberlin (2-14) tied the game 1-1 with a solo home run to left field in the bottom half of the first.

Colby reclaimed the lead with four runs off three hits and two Yeowomen errors in the top of the third, when Burnham led off the inning with a solo home run left field and Wilcox delivered a two-run single before scoring on an Oberlin miscue to give the Mules a 5-1 edge.

In the fourth inning, the Mules added two more runs onto their total when junior Carissa Cassidy plated Burnham and senior Erika MacLeod off a single before adding four more runs in the sixth to cap off their scoring for the game.

Oberlin scored the final run of the game off an RBI single up the middle in the bottom of the sixth game.
