Mattingly’s one-out RBI double in the first inning and Gibbins’ two-out RBI single in the second inning put Vian ahead 2-0, only to see Spiro tie the game at 2-all with two runs in the third inning.

For the game, Gibbins was 3-for-4 with the walk-off, game-winning homer and two runs batted in, Drew was 2-for-3 and Mattingly hit an RBI double for the Lady Wolverines (6-3).
