The Sycamores finished with four hits in the game, led by Morgan Goodrich and Kenzie Cornwell. Goodrich went 2-for-3, while Cornwell was perfect at the plate, going 2-for-2 with an RBI. Livi Colip also contributed an RBI, helping to seal the win for Indiana State.

Hailey Griffin set the tone early in the game, retiring the side in order in the first inning with three strikeouts.

Indiana State got on the board quickly in the bottom of the first. Goodrich led off with a single to shortstop, and Cornwell followed with a single of her own to put runners on first and second with no outs.

Cornwell then stole second and Goodrich stole third to move runners into scoring position. After a lineout by Lauren Marsicek, Livi Colip stepped up and lifted a sacrifice fly to left field, scoring Goodrich for the first run of the game.

UIC threatened in the top of the third when a leadoff walk and a stolen base put a runner in scoring position. An error at first base moved another runner to third with just one out, but the Sycamores held firm, recording two quick popouts to strand both runners and maintain a 1-0 lead.

In the bottom of the fifth, Goodrich and Cornwell both kept their hitting streaks alive with their second hits of the game. Goodrich singled to third base, and Cornwell followed with an RBI single up the middle, bringing Goodrich home and extending the Sycamores' lead to 2-0.

Hailey Griffin (10-7) earned her second win of the weekend series, delivering a complete-game shutout. She allowed just three hits, walked one, and struck out four, ensuring the Flames remained scoreless throughout all seven innings. This marked Griffin's ninth complete game of the season and her fifth shutout victory.
