The Indians scored their lone run in the top of the fourth, as they held a 1-0 lead after four innings.

From there, all the scoring belonged to the Broncos, as the host team scored four runs in the bottom of the fifth, and then they gained the win with seven runs crossing the plate in the bottom of the sixth.

Hillsboro totaled two hits and two walks with Jack Cornele finishing 1-for-3 with a run, and Nate Lane was 1-for-2 with a walk. Brody Kelch collected an RBI for the Indians and also had a sacrifice fly, while Mason Dumpert forced a walk.
