Neosho started the game hot, scoring two in the bottom of the first, three in the bottom of the second and one in the bottom of the third. The Panthers scored again in the fifth and two in the sixth.

The insurance run in the bottom of the eighth came from a Skip Skalnik RBI single that scored Jonah Bride.
In game two, Tyler Sutherland was 4-for-5 with two RBIs, three runs scored and home run, his second of the day. Chad Thomas was 2-for-3 with a RBI. Bride went 2-for-4 with a home run, three RBIs and a run scored.
