The sophomore took advantage of a passed ball and moved herself on over to second. Despite grounding out to short, Sam Grillo was able to move Webber to third. Olivia Stinchcomb collected the lone Cardinal RBI in with her single through the left side. 

Moravian added one more in the bottom of the sixth, once again holding a six run lead at 7-1.
