Game two would be a scoreless after before an Ortiz two-RBI single put the Flames on top, ultimately giving them the 2-0 victory over the Saints, their first shutout victory of the year. The Flames finish the day 1-1, putting their record 10-10-1

A back-and-forth contest from the start, the Flames and Raiders battled through seven innings. Colgate opened the contest with a one-run homer to take the early lead before UIC took the lead in the bottom of the second. Emily Brecht recorded the Flames first run when she scored off a wild pitch. During Diamond Blomlie's walk, Emilia Bartholomew stole home. Then, during an error on the first baseman, Blomlie reached home, putting the Flames on top 3-1. The Raiders added three runs of their own in the top of the third to take back the lead. In the fourth, Colgate added one more run before UIC tied the contest in the bottom half of the inning. Emilia Bartholomew hit her second home run of her career to tie the game at 5-5. In the fifth, the Flames took the lead back when Larissa Ortiz hit a three-run homer, her third home run of the year. After five, the Flames led the Raiders 8-5.
