In the second inning, Nicole Whitney added an RBI single up the middle scoring Bailey Romano. Emily Espino then hit a sac fly to score Whitney, giving the Hawks a 3-0 lead.
But in the bottom of the second, the Oaks scored six runs to take the 6-2 lead, then five runs in the third for a 11-3 lead.
Trailing 12-4 heading into the fifth, the Hawks attempted a comeback and scored four runs. Mack was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded for the first run of the inning.
