Phillips recorded three hits and three RBI, while junior Kaylyn Camacho (Tampa, Fla.) tallied two RBI and also earned a victory in the circle as the Wolves topped the Trojans 9-7 at Smethers Field.

It wasn't until the third inning that the Wolves opened the scoring as Brugh doubled to left center to lead off the inning. A passed ball allowed Brugh to safely reach third, before scoring on a single through the left side by Phillips.

Anderson tied the game with a run in the third, before the Wolves offense broke out for seven runs in the top of the fourth.

Freshman Summer Bartek (Jefferson, Ga.) recorded a one out infield single, which was followed by a single to left center by Brugh. After Workman drew a walk, Diaz delivered a bases loaded double to right center that scored Brugh and Bartek. Workman scored a batter later as on a Phillips single to left.

With Diaz at third and second base open, Phillips successfully stole second before Yancey singled up the middle scoring Diaz.
