Haley Zemmer was 3-for-3 including two doubles with two RBI for the Red Hawks. Palmer scored twice and was 2-for-4 in Game 1.

West Bloomfield scored a single run in the second and tied the game at 3-3 with two runs in the sixth. Allison Kus had a home run for the Lakers.

Zemmer closed the door on the Lakers (8-6, 3-3) with eight strikeouts, two walks and five hits over seven innings of work.

In Game 2, Zemmer pitched a one-hitter with five strikeouts in the win and helped her own cause by going 2-for-3 with a triple. Palmer was 2-for-4 with an RBI double and Erica Siismets finished 2-for-3.

The Red Hawks (16-4-1, 6-0) plated a run in the third and two in the fifth while allowing the Lakers just one run in the fourth frame.
