In the win over Purdue, Emanuel singled in a run in the first and had a two-run double as part of a four-run second that staked the Cougars to a 5-0 lead. The Boilermakers pulled back to within 5-2 before Gracyn Thrasher lined a home run to left in the fifth, and Vicary had an RBI triple followed by a run-scoring single by Jenna Helberg the following inning.
