Brialynn Mica (1-for-4, RBI) tied the game in the fifth inning with a grounder to centerfield allowing Millie Redican (2-for-4, 2B) to score. Mica scored the tying run on a fielding error in that same at-bat. However, three quick outs in the next two innings and big hits from the Pioneers sealed the Cyclones' fate.
