Marist (24-4) faced a tough Cairo (18-11) that was the #2-Seed from Region 1-AAAA in South Georgia in the 2nd Round Best-of-3 Series.  In Game 1, senior pitcher Lexi Van Metre allowed only 2 hits and struck out 9 in the win and was also the clutch hitter as her sacrifice fly in the bottom of the 7th inning brought home Kaky Linnihan with the winning run.  Her sacrifice fly in the 5th inning scored the Lady War Eagles first run that tied the game.

In the second game, pitcher Ashley Haertel also allowed on 2 Cairo hits and struck out 5 as Marist scored all 4 runs in the 5th inning for the win and earn the trip to Columbus.
