The game remained scoreless until the fifth inning when Ashley Childs hit a ball into center field. She later came in for a run on Madison Day’s hit down the left-field line.
Childs finished the game with a single and a double.
Oxford Hills added two more runs in the top of the sixth inning. With two outs, Brooke Carson’s double scored one. Merrill worked a bases-loaded walk to score the third run.
Skowhegan maintains the top spot in Class A North, and will open the postseason against No. 8 Bangor.
Oxford Hills is the second seed, and will face No. 7 Mt. Ararat in the quarterfinals.
