It didn’t take long for Wawasee to score the first runs of the game, as the first two hitters of the game for the Lady Warriors, sisters Natalya and Makayla Holder, reached base on a single and an error. Natalya would come around to score on a wild pitch, while Makayla would cross home on an infield single by Ashlynn Corn.
