The Yellow Jackets scored in the bottom half of the third and two more times in the fifth but not before the Lady Chargers scored their tenth run of the game in the top of the fifth inning.
Shelby Smith (Valley Center, CA) pitched a strong five innings for Dominican and Jennifer Paride (Stonington, CT) finished off the final two innings to seal the win.
