The game was tied 1-1 at halftime. Emma Fraser, Sarah Parson and Halie Johnson scored in the last 3:17 of the third quarter for a 4-1 lead. Kemi Dijkstra and Johnson netted goals to open the fourth period, pushing the advantage to 6-2.

Fraser had two goals, two assists and five steals. Johnson added two goals and two steals. Alyssa Russell-Sadoff recorded five steals and Parson had four.

Melissa Walk played the first half in the cage and made six saves to improve to 7-0.
