Grand Blanc, MI — GB scored seven runs in the fourth inning, which helped defeat Down 8-1 with Grace Matney hitting deep to center, the wind held it in place, but the centerfielder made an error which lit a fire for GB. Kayla Blumenschein singled, scoring two runs, Cay'ana Tipton hit into a fielder's choice, but one run scored, Ella Stevenson singled, scoring two runs, and Hannah Hohnson homered to left field, scoring two runs. Blumenschein stepped in the circle first. She gave up one hit and one run over five innings, striking out nine and walking five with Alaina Trotter behind the plate. Savannah Schultz pitched two innings of shoutout ball in relief. She surrendered one hit, striking out four, and walking none. She also had an ESPN worthy diving catch to cinch one of the last outs. Ava Zagata also put two away with big catches in right field. We collected 11 hits with Johnson, Zoey Beard, Trotter, and Blumenschein each collected two hits.
