The Blue Dragons scored twice in the first inning for a 2-0 lead, then broke open the game with a five-run second inning for a 7-0 advantage. A run in the fifth inning put the game into run-rule status.

Wyatt (22-7) suffered the loss, going three innings with a strikeout. Alyssa Opgenorth went the rest of the way with a strikeout.

In Tuesday’s seasonending loss to Iowa Western, the Cowgirls were four-hit by Iowa Western’s pitcher as Muns, Haley Seawright, Lexi Cramp and Lynzi Kelley all singled.
