Wilmington evened the score on Haley Johnson's RBI single in the bottom of the inning, then got a bases-clearing double from Jocelyn Franz in the fourth to take the lead for good.

Freshman outfielder Kennedy Dean (Jamestown/Greeneview) was 2-for-3 for Ohio Wesleyan.  Junior righthander Makenna Knisely (Washington Court House/Washington) was the starting and losing pitcher for the Bishops.

Ohio Wesleyan threatened in the second inning of the opener, getting a one-out single by Leohner and a 2-out double by freshman shortstop Caity Journey (Nashport/Dresden Tri-Valley), but the runners were stranded at second and third.

In the bottom of the inning, the Quakers struck for 6 runs, with Addysten Stevens driving a 2-run double.  Judaea Wilson added a 2-run double in the bottom of the fifth to end the game.

Senior righthander Kaelyn Rodriguez (South El Monte, Calif.) was the starting and losing pitcher for Ohio Wesleyan.
