The Lady Harvesters took back the lead in the top of the fifth as McKinley Daniels hit an inside the park home run on a pop fly out to left field.

The Lady Indians then took advantage of a Pampa error to tie it back up in the bottom of the sixth. After a scoreless seventh inning, the game was forced into extra innings.

Sanger kept the Pampa offense at bay in the top of the eighth as the Lady Harvesters were not able to get a runner on the basepaths. In the bottom of the frame, Sanger walked it off as Sophia Troegle put down a bunt along the third base line to score Harley Miller. The Lady Indians took the Region 1 Championship over the Lady Harvesters and punched their ticket to the state tournament.
