Edwardsburg scored its lone run in the top of the first as with two out, Emma Denison singled to score Lindsey Dalenberg, who had reached on an error to open the game.

Wayland responded with a pair of runs in the bottom half of the third inning. With one out, a walk followed by a home run from Kennedy Cole gave Wayland a 2-1 lead it would not relinquish.

Wayland added a run in the fifth to complete the scoring.
