After giving up two runs in the opening frame the Royals responded back with three runs in the home half of the second. Bethel took advantage of a pair of walks and an Ephs error to set up Caleb Brandt to single though the left side giving the Royals a 3-2 lead.

Williams starter Jack Bohen kept the Royals off the scoreboard the rest of the way. The Ephs scored 10 unanswered runs the rest of the way highlighted by a five-run sixth inning to take the win 12-3.
