NAMPA, Idaho – Northwest Nazarene softball defeated Saint Martin's 17-2 in game one and 3-1 in extra innings of game two.

Saint Martin's responded to the nine-run inning with two runs on two hits in the top of the second inning. After a scoreless bottom of the second and top of the third, NNU generated another big inning, scoring eight runs in the bottom of the third. The eight-run rally featured three singles, five walks, and one error. NNU held on to the 17-2 score and won on run rule in four and a half innings.

The 1-0 score held through most of the game. In the bottom of the seventh inning, Emma Bumatay led off with a solo home run that tied the game at 1-1 and sent the contest into extra innings. NNU threatened to end the game in the bottom of the eighth inning. Mari Kamemoto led off the inning with a single and Jami Obringer pinch ran for her. Obringer stole second and advanced to third on an error. The Nighthawks were unable to bring Obringer in to score.
 
After sending the game into extra innings, Bumatay called game in her next at bat when she hit a two-run bomb in the bottom of the ninth inning to give NNU the 3-1 victory.
