Emmetsburg had no runs on just 3 hits and they were led by Jenna Chapman, Ashton
Connelly and Kendall Deitering each getting a hit.  The E’hawks biggest threat
came in the 2nd inning when they had bases loaded and 1 out and
failed to score.  The winning pitcher was Jasmine Vanderzwaag going 7 innings,
giving up 0 runs on 3 hits.  Ashton Connelly took the loss going 7 innings with
