The Rams fell just short of the Jets by a score of 3-2.

On the hitting side, Ashlin Woodman made the most of her time at bat despite the final result and went 2-for-3 with one stolen base, one run, and one double.
Flat Rock's defeat dropped their record down to 3-6. As for Airport, the victory (which was their fifth in a row) raised their record to 5-1.
