The Lumberjacks got the scoring started in the bottom of the 1st when Joe Ziwicki singled with 1 out, then Brett Leabch drove him in with an rbi triple to right to make it 1-0. After Avon starter Drew Lieser walked Noah Winkelman, a Chuck Hackett ground ball allowed Leabch to score and make it 2-0 after 1 inning.

Foley then doubled their lead in the bottom of the 2nd on 3 straight 1-out singles from Alex Foss, Drew Beier and Joe Ziwicki to load the bases. Brett Leabch then made it 4 straight hits with an rbi single to score Foss and make it 3-0. Noah Winkelman then delivered the 5th straight hit, an rbi single to plate Drew Beier and give Foley a 4-0 lead after 2 innings.

It remained 4-0 until the top of the 7th when pinch-hitter Charlie Dolan drove in Kady Mork with an rbi single to make it 4-1. 1 out later, Ryan Janzen doubled to right to score Travis Cariveau to make it 4-2 at the 7th inning stretch.

In the bottom of the 7th, Foley got singles from Chuck Hackett and Trey Emmerich and a 1-out rbi single by Wyatt Ziwicki to make it 5-2.

In the bottom of the 8th, Foley put up their final run when Brett Leabch reached on an error and scored on a 2-out rbi double from Chuck Hackett to make it 6-2.

Avon did load the bases in the top of the 9th to get the tying run to the plate when Nolan Dumonceaux was hit by a Trey Emmerich pitch with 2 outs, followed by a Henry Schloe single and a walk to Elian Mezquita.
