The Saints were led at the plate by senior first baseman Brittany Wegman (West Harrison, Ind./East Central ), who went two-for-three with a run scored and sophomore third baseman Alex Walter (Lebanon, Ohio/Lebanon ), who was two-for-three.
Sophomore Ronni Burns (Dayton, Ohio/Carroll) suffered the loss in the pitching circle as she pitched seven innings and gave up three runs (all earned) on 10 hits and struck out seven.
In the second game, the Saints scored two in the first, two in the third, one in the fifth and one in the seventh and held Thiel scoreless for the 6-0 shutout win.
