After two scoreless innings, junior
Laura Rojek reached on a fielder's choice, but recorded the RBI as
Samantha Vara, who led off the inning with one of her three hits, came around to score.
Behind a leadoff double from Vara to start the fifth, the Cardinals plated three more runs to take a 4-0 lead.
Kelly Jones and
Kristi Bradley each singled in the inning, with sophomore catcher
Jamie Harmon's hard-hit single up the middle accounting for two RBI.
Baldwin Wallace scored its two runs on a pair of RBI triples down the right field line in the sixth, but got no closer, as
Amanda Shevchuk induced a 1-2-3 inning to end the game.
Shevchuk (3-1) recorded the complete-game win, and fanned five batters. Vara led the Cardinals offensively with three hits and two runs scored, while Harmon and Jones each went 2-for-3.
