A double by Ambria Guye scored Jayla Alexander in the first inning and a bases loaded walk to Milani Dunning brought home Madison Starling-Martin in the bottom of the second for a 2-1 lead.

Neveah Ford scored a run in the third after a single to centerfield by Starling-Martin to give SSU a 3-1 advantage.

Savannah State left two runners on base in the fourth but were able to score four times.

Dunning and Alexander both hit singles and after Guye struck out swinging, Dunning was able to score a run. Jayla Givens drew a walk and when Ford reached base because of an error by the first baseman, Alexander scored. A walk to Starling-Martin loaded the bases for Phaedra Smith who delivered a two-run single to right field that brought home Given and Ford to make the score 7-1.
