The Dutch plated one in the second, two in the fourth and seventh in the fifth to take the first game.

Sophomore Jess Brunko (Independence) went 2-2 at the plate and Warburton finished 2-3.

In the final game, Central scored three runs in the first and third innings.

The Knights return to the field Wednesday when they travel to face Dubuque.
