Devin Dreesen paced the Red Raiders' 10-hit attack, going 3-for-4 with two RBIs and a run scored. Both Jennifer Boeve and Amber Schubert had two hits each and Emily Strasser added a double and scored two runs.

After Waldorf scored a run in the top of the first, Northwestern took the lead for good with a three runs in the bottom of the inning.
