Game Two
The Eagles held off a late rally for a 10–9 victory in game two. Hendrix jumped ahead early with two first-inning runs, but Ozarks answered in the second behind a solo homer from Sage Adams and an RBI single from Brilea Rofkahr to even the score. After Hendrix reclaimed the lead in the third, the Eagles began to build momentum. Ozarks trimmed the deficit in the third on an RBI double by Lori-Ann Hughes before a decisive five-run fourth inning flipped the game. Isabella Hulsey delivered the biggest swing with a three-run homer, while RBI hit-by-pitches to Adams and Kamryn Uher extended the lead to 8–4. The Eagles added two more in the fifth when Dez Soto lined a two-run single to push the margin to 10–5.
