Lily Marshman had a two-out, two-run RBI single to help give Oxford a 3-0 lead in the top of the first.

Sidney went ahead 8-3 in the bottom half of the first and added on in the top of the third.

A wild pitch, errors, and a steal of home contributed to Oxford's other runs in the contest.

Lily Marshman went four and two thirds, allowing 14 runs (11 earned) on 12 hits, two walks, and five strikeouts.

Cora Hodge worked an inning and a third in relief, striking out four batters.
