In its first game, University went up 4-0 after two innings and was able to maintain that advantage during the game. Hellman had two hits, while Jake Hooker hit a triple and drove in two runs. Grayson Knight got the win, striking out six in five innings, while Oxley pitched the last two innings and recorded the save, with five strikeouts.
