The Rundown
The Knights scored at least one run in each of the five innings played in the contest against Northwest: 2, 4, 3, 2 and 1. The Warner Pacific defense only allowed four Eagles runs on the day.
 
The strongest of the innings, the second, saw the likings of another 2-run Payton Hergert homerun and a Devinne Amesquita double. The two hits contributed to the four-run inning.
 
Payton Hergert leads the team in home runs with five, while adding 15 RBI's.
 
Amesquita follows closely behind her with 13 RBI's of her own, leading the team in doubles with six.

Macy Besuyen went 3-3 on the day with one run and one RBI. 
 
Going another inning without an NU run, Warner Pacific continued to tack on some runs of their own before giving up three NU scores at the top of the fourth inning.
 
Responding in the bottom of the same inning, Warner Pacific cross the plate a couple more times before closing out the series with a 12-4 victory.
