Gabriel struck out but got to first on a dropped third strike that got past the Bonnies' catcher Frey. Both Wilson and Gabriel were able to advance an extra base on the play.
Freshman Kara Clauss kept the inning going with a single that scored Wilson. Holst followed with a single of her own, scoring Gabriel and pushing Clauss to third after Clauss stole second.
Freshman Krissy Mackiewicz sacrifice bunted Clauss home and Holst to third after she stole second earlier in the at-bat.
