Cumberlands, which won an 11-inning battle over three-seeded Georgetown 5-4 earlier in the day, rallied once again for an upset victory of CU. The Patriots tied the game in the seventh and scored the go-ahead run in the eighth after a pair of leadoff singles crossed the plate.

In the seventh inning, Madison Monin led off the inning with a single to left field and her pinch-runner Elisa Mauldin advanced to second on a ground ball to starter Neely Quint (18-6). Mauldin then came around to score on an RBI single to right field by Kailin Yantz.
 
In the eighth, Quint started the inning and gave up a single to speedster Kaylee James. James stole second and moved to third on a sac bunt, then beat the throw from Brittany Rippy on a ground ball to second base by Ciara England to give the Patriots a 2-1 lead.
 
Rachel Denkins relived Quint in the circle and worked out of the jam with a nice play on a squeeze bunt then struck out Hayley Kilburn to end the threat.
 
In the eighth, CU had a chance to tie it after a two-out double by Rebecca Miller but Mia Aldridge grounded out to end the rally.
 
Aryanna Cannoy (3-2) earned the win after tossing eight innings, allowing seven hits and one earned run.
 
Cumberlands now plays top-seeded Lindsey Wilson at 2:30 p.m. ET on Saturday afternoon in the Winner's Bracket finals.
