Trojan freshman Julia Diehl had two homeruns, 4 RBI's and picked up the win on the mound as the Lady Trojans came from behind to defeat McCook 8-7 in the first round. The Trojans trailed by five runs midway through but managed to tie the game in the sixth. McCook retook the lead in the seventh but a home run by Diehl tied it up. Nikole Morgan then reached and using some great "Small Ball" the Trojans brought her around to score.
Alyse Billick had a homerun for the Trojans and YaYa Jacquez also had a good game at the plate.
