Sweet Briar increased its lead to two in the top of the second when first-year Alyssa O'Quinn (Powhatan, Va.) tripled to allow first-year Kaydin Williams (Richlands, N.C.) to score.
 
Despite Brevard coming with one after the third inning, first-year Ilka-Marie Kuleba (Endy, N.C.) pushed the Vixens to victory with a double to left field which saw O'Quinn and Williams cross home plate for the 4-0 victory.
