The game would start following a two hour delay due to weather. The tarp was finally taken off the field at 2:30pm Pacific Time and the first pitch from Starter Cheridan Hawkins came at 4:02pm. Hawkins was one of eight Seniors honored before the game. She would give up two hits and two runs in the first inning.
After Hawkins settled down in the second to strikeout the side, Geri Anne Glasco hit a solo home run over the right field wall to it 2-1 Utah. Janelle Lindvall would follow with a base hit, but a Utes double play and a ground out would end the second innning threat.
