Riv swung the bat well in Game 1 while totaling 9 base hits. The Raiders left 5 runners in scoring position as they struggled getting the clutch hit after getting on base. Riv plated a run in the opening frame as junior Monica White did her job and led off with a hit. A throwing error by the Mustangs put the visitors up 1-0. The Blue and Gray pushed 2 more across in the 5th inning. Sophomore Kelsy LaRose led things off with a double and was brought home on an RBI single by White. Junior Brenna Campbell stepped up and, after a single by junior Jess Mellen put runners in scoring position, delivered a 2-out RBI single up the middle. The Mustangs would not go down without a fight as they answered Riv's 2 runs with 2 unearned runs of their own in the bottom half of the frame. Monica White then closed the door as she sent Mt. Ida down in order over the final 2 innings. White did it all for the Raiders as she tallied 4 of the team's 9 hits and, in the circle, hurled a 3-hit; 7 strikeout gem.
 
Game 2 was another defensive battle. This time around, Mt. Ida drew first blood as they cranked a lead-off homerun in the bottom of the 2nd inning. They scored what turned out to be the game-winning run off a bases-loaded error in the 4th. Riv's offense sputtered as it could only muster single hits through the first 6 innings. The Raiders battled back in the 7th on 3 singles. The game-tying run was thrown out at the plate to end the game. Junior Jess Mellen had the only multiple-hit game for Riv as she finished with 2 hard-hit singles. Junior Alexa Feener was the tough-luck loser as she gave up only 1 earned run on 4 hits while K'ing 8 Mustangs.
