Mayson Aslinger was hit by a pitch, and Bryson Edwards walked to start the top of the second for Normal West. They were brought home by a single from Charlie Hanks to make it 2-0. 

The Wildcats then capitalized on an Urbana error to make it 3-0, followed by a single from Jasper Pomis and a Double from Sam McCullly to make it 5-0 with two outs. Back-to-back triples from Ty Bachman and Aslinger made it 7-0 before Edwards was brought home on a walk.

A Jayden Floyd Double scored Chase Reinhart and Jack Steidinger to grow the Normal West lead to 10-1, and Bachman singled in Floyd and Pomis from there for the final tally. 

Bachman led the Wildcats with a 2-for-4 outing, including two RBIs and a run scored. Aslinger was 1-for-3 but scored twice and batted one in. Edwards was the only Normal West Batter to not record a hit; he walked twice and scored once. 

Drake Rumps pitched five innings of one-run ball, allowing just two hits and striking out eight. 

Alden Bridges and Curtis Kennedy recorded the lone hits for the Tigers, each with a 1-for-2 performance.
