In the bottom of the third inning, Arizona State made it 2-0 on an RBI single up the middle. ASU tallied another in the bottom of the fourth inning to take a 3-0 lead. The fifth was scoreless by both squads and the Rebels got on the board in the top of the sixth on an RBI single to left center by Karmyna Becerra.
