In the second game the Jayhawks played Central Missouri State University. Junior pitcher Val George pitched seven innings allowing no runs off of three hits. She struck out 10 batters and walked one. The Jayhawks big inning was in the fifth by a single from junior infielder Val Chapple, which was the Jayhawks first hit of the game. From there the wheels fell off for CMSU. The Jayhawks scored four runs in the fifth and then added three more in the sixth off of a three-run home run by Junior Stevie Crisosto.

The third game pitted the Jayhawks against University of Missouri Kansas City. George allowed three hits, struck out nine and allowed two runs over six innings before being relieved in the seventh by Clark. Crisosto added another big game with a two-run home run in the bottom of the third inning.

Kansas played CMSU for the second time after defeating UMKC on Sunday. The Jayhawks won 6-2 to complete the weekend at 4-0.
