The Minutemen scored five runs in the top of the seventh to make it 11-1.

The highlight of the night for the Tigers came in their final at bat. Senior Kaleigh Speicher blasted a grand slam homer in the bottom of the seventh for the 11-5 final.

Loge went 3-4 with two doubles and six RBI for Concord, now 9-6.

Lauren Shaffner had a double for Warsaw. Speicher took the pitching loss for the Tigers, who committed six errors.
