Liberty managed to build a 4-0 lead through the first two innings, but the Rebels came back with a vengeance, scoring seven runs during the top of the third and fourth innings. The teams traded one-run innings until Liberty broke through to tie the game at 9-9 during a three-run sixth.

One of the biggest issues for Juanita during the game was its defense, committing five errors.
