Mexico sent Dallas Escobedo to the mound to try to secure Mexico's first tournament win, while the United States started Cat Osterman. Mexico got its only hit in the bottom of the second, when Victoria Vidales beat out an infield hit to the shortstop. In the top of the third, a leadoff walk and Haylie McCleney single saw Escobedo replaced by Danielle O'Toole, who got two outs and intentionally walked Valerie Arioto before Ali Aguilar singled to center field to give the United States a 2–0 lead. In the top of the sixth, Anissa Urtez threw out Arioto at home on a ground out, keeping the score close. Monica Abbott pitched a scoreless seventh inning to secure a third tournament win for the United States.
