On Friday night, the Tigers tallied just one hit against James Madison pitcher Odicci Alexander. However, on Saturday, MU cracked the code. In the second inning Cayla Kessinger, Brooke Wilmes, and Hatti Moore all put runs on the board to give Mizzou a 6-0 lead.

Kessinger capped off her night with her second home run of the day, which put MU up by seven.

Freshman Laurin Krings kept the Dukes off of home plate with 10 strikeouts and just one run allowed in the 7-1 victory.

Up next - No. 8 Mizzou will host James Madison in the rubber match on Sunday, May 30 at 11 A.M.
