For the second time this weekend Dargy and Jamie White teamed up to hit back-to-back home runs in the first inning as White blasted a solo shot to left to stretch the lead to 3-0.
Emily Klosterman and Allison Helton opened the second with consecutive singles before Klosterman scored on an RBI groundout from Tucker.
Omaha added a second run in the inning when Dargy lined an RBI single up the middle, plating Helton.
