Paisley Campbell got a 2-out RBI single to score Madison Pruitt and tie the game at 1-1. Davis followed with a line-drive shot over the wall in right-center to score Chesnie Cox, who had walked, and Campbell.

The Lady Raiders added an insurance run in the sixth on a sacrifice fly by Savannah Cooper to score Aleayia Barnes, who was running for Jalyn Moran.

That was plenty for the Lady Raider defense and Davis in the circle. The senior right-hander only allowed 4 hits and 1 run while striking out 6 and walking 1. Two Milford hits were infield singles.

Milford’s lone run came in the third on a two out RBI single by Callie Allison to score Maddie Fugate.
