Karlie Neale would go 2-for-3 with two doubles to kick-start a 7-1 win in game two.

Neale sparked a four-run inning in the third, and was responsible for the first run of the game on a double, as she scored Mazierski and Julia Sortisio.

With Neale on second, Sarah Kubik found success at the plate when she singled down the left-field line, scoring Neale. Up next was Ashley Prince who also tacked on an RBI single, scoring Kubik.

The Cardinals would have another exciting rally in the sixth, as they would score three more times before the end of the inning.

With Lauren Owens on base, Kristina Balsano singled to left field, advancing Owens to third. On the next at bat, Balsano attempted to steal when the second baseman missed the tag, throwing home in an attempt to put out Owens, who had already made it to home plate.

On the ensuing play, Sortisio found her first RBI single of the day, scoring Balsano from second. Shortly after, Kubik would reach first as Sortisio scored, bringing the score to 7-0.

D'Youville answered in the top of the seventh, hitting a double and two singles resulting in one run, but could not make the game any closer when the last batter popped up to Owens for the final out.

Pitcher Halie Schoff was credited with the win, tallying two strikeouts while allowing seven hits.
