In the fourth, Kent State came close to home plate after senior designated Tracie Logar (McDonald, Ohio/McDonald) reached first on an error by the RedHawks before senior leftfielder Rachel Testa (Rootstown, Ohio/Hoban) singled center field. Testa then stole second to put runners at second and third before freshman Megan Verde (Massillon, Ohio/Jackson) grounded out to the shortstop.
The RedHawks got on the board the fifth as Chelsie McWhorter drove in two runs on a single through the right side for the 2-0 lead.
Miami notched one more run in the sixth as Jackie Poggendorfs single scored Bianca Paz for the 3-0 win.
Testa went 2-for-3 while senior Kate Leary (Pickerington, Ohio/Pickerington) went five innings, giving up three hits and two earned runs.
Kent State will get another chance at Miami tomorrow (May 1) in a doubleheader starting at 1 p.m. in Oxford.
