River Falls added five in the top of the third and another in the fourth to take an 8-2 lead, but the Prairie Fire scored two in the bottom of the fourth to remain in striking distance. The Falcons put up five more runs in the top of the fifth and held on for a 13-5 victory.
 
St. Olaf took an early 12-0 lead thanks to an eight run second inning, but Knox scored five in the fifth to keep the game alive. The Oles added a run in the bottom of the sixth to put the game away.
