In game two, it was the Stars this time around taking the early lead, as they went ahead 1-0, after Sarah Dooley doubled to left, scoring Monica Nakamatsu, who reached base on an error.
 
The lead, however, didn't last long, as in the bottom of the first, the Owls plated three runs on three hits. Shelby LeCuru got the inning started with a double to left-center. After Scheer bunted and reached base on the attempt, Scharnhorst tripled to right, scoring the duo of LeCuru and Scheer, which gave WWU a 2-1 lead.
 
Sicht then made it a two run lead, as she hit a sacrifice fly to center, which scored Scharnhorst from third.
 
In the bottom of the second, the scoring frenzy continued, as the Owls scored four runs on five hits, getting RBI from Scharnhorst and Sicht, while the other two runs were scored on an error and a passed ball, which allowed Wierschem to score from third, who led the inning off with a triple.
 
A Cooper sacrifice fly and a LeCuru RBI double in the third, pushed the teams' lead out to 9-1. That lead was more than enough for Scheer, who picked up the win, as she went 4.0 innings, allowing one run (zero earned) on two hits and struck out three.
