Sasha Willems and Odalys Cordova both grounded out to end the inning. In the inning the Jags pick up one run on three hits and led 1-0.
In the bottom of the second inning. The Jaguars continue to put runs up. Gabby Stagner singled to left to lead off the inning. Stephanie Gonzalez flew out to right, for the first out of the inning. Bailey Welch reached on a fielding error by the 1st baseman. Marley Sims hit and rbi single up the middle.
After a ULM pitching change, Brasher reached on a fielders choice, with Welch being thrown out at third for the second out of the inning. That brought Keel to the plate. Keel would hit a two rbi double, to left center. Keel was thrown out at third, trying to stretch the double into a triple. But, not before the runs scored.
