Heights added two runs in the top of the fourth. Isabella Neiling hit a single to get on base, advanced to second on a wild pitch, and eventually scored on a single from Ashlyn Fletcher. After that, Morgan Ottinger’s single sent Kaylee Rhoton home; Rhoton drew a walk to get on base.
Roush finished the game 2-for-3 at the plate. She also pitched a complete game, striking out six.
