Frerichs and Ralfs each ripped an RBI triple as part of a four-run second inning. Barrett also drove in a run in the inning. Stephens got three runs back in the third, but RBIs from Munsterman and Ralfs in the fourth and Kaitlyn Sandora in the sixth sealed the win. Ralfs also earned the win with three innings of work. Jane Thomas and Ella Specht combined for three scoreless innings of relief.
St. Ambrose 9, Stephens 1 (5 inn.) - box score
Jane Thomas allowed just four hits and one run over four innings to earn the win as St. Ambrose defeated Stephens for the second time over the weekend.

St. Ambrose 1, Lincoln 0 - box score
Erica Ralfs and Ella Specht combined on a three-hit shutout as St. Ambrose wrapped up the weekend with a 1-0 win over Lincoln. Ralfs surrendered just one hit while striking out four over five frames before Specht allowed two hits over the final two innings. The Bees managed six total hits, two coming off the bat of Kayla Stenger. It was her first hit that proved to be the difference. Olivia Haas had a two-out single in the second before Stenger followed with a double to plate the only run. Ralfs worked out of a jam in the third, stranding runners on the corners. Specht got out of a jam herself in the seventh as Lincoln loaded the bases before Specht got a ground ball to end the game.
