The defense for both teams held things down in the 2nd quarter. Team Arsenault goalie Caylee Waters allowed only one goal to Team Warden’s Sam Apuzzo, while Hill allowed none. Both sides of the field made key defensive plays to keep the scoring to a minimum heading into the half.

Entering the second half, Warden and her squad led 5-2. Ohlmiller scored her second goal of the game to put a stop to a 15 minute scoring drought by Team Arsenault, marking the beginning of her own scoring run. As Team Warden entered a scoring drought of their own, the duo of Ohlmiller and McCool linked up to score as McCool fed the ball to Ohlmiller, who put it past Hill on back-to-back goals.
Tied 5-5, Ally Kennedy put Team Warden back in front with 1:19 left in the third, but Lindsey McKone quickly answered with a bounce shot to tie things up again at six heading to the fourth.
