The Cowgirls struck first for the second time in the series, pushing across two runs in the second inning. Sydney Pennington recorded an RBI groundout, scoring Julia Cottrill. Factor followed with a single to right field bringing home another OSU run.
Oklahoma State added two more in the fifth on two Iowa State errors.
The Cowgirls' offense exploded in the sixth with seven runs. The inning started with three base hits to load the bases. Two more Iowa State errors, a wild pitch, and a fielder's choice scored five runs before Busby doubled in another. Taylor Tuck followed with an RBI single.
