Sophomore catcher Megan Ayala and freshman pitcher Addison Lindemann each blasted their first home runs of the season for Midwestern State, but Oklahoma Christian clawed their way to a 4-3 win in extra innings.

The game was scoreless until Ayala led off the fourth inning with a home run to left field off OC starting pitcher Jill Dickson.

The 1-0 lead was erased in the fifth inning after Brooklin Bain drew a leadoff walk. Kiley Brewster laid down a successful sacrifice bunt to get Bain into scoring position. Kadence Brewster grounded out to third base, and Bain hustled to third for the Eagles. The senior scored on a wild pitch to tie the game.
