GAME FLOW & NOTES
- Blair Parent (Blaine, Minn.) opened the Friars' scoring efforts just 7:29 into the first period. Cassidy MacPherson (Oakville, Ontario) picked up her team-leading 15th assist with a nice pass across the goal mouth on the play.
- Whitney Dove (Port Moody, British Columbia) increased the Friars' lead to 2-0 with a power-play goal at the 10:24 mark. Maureen Murphy (Buffalo, N.Y.) dished the puck to Meaghan Rickard (Coventry, R.I.) who found Dove alone on the back doorstep for the score.
- Just 1:14 later, Avery Fransoo (North Battleford, Saskatchewan) netted her second goal of the season. Her shot from the point snuck through traffic and was assisted by Neve Van Pelt (Mitchell, Ontario) and Hayley Lunny (Bedford, N.Y.). The assist marks Lunny's first of her career.
- The Friars closed out the first-frame with nearly four minutes of 5-on-3 penalty kill action.
- The second period featured back-and-forth action, with Providence outshooting Brown 14-7.
- With just under three minutes left to play in regulation, Kaitijane Blumberg got Brown on the board. Bridget Carey took a shot, which Madison Myers (Colchester, Vt.) saved, but Blumberg was there to finish the rebound. Maddie Sisokin picked up the secondary assist.
- Myers finished the game with 18 saves, while Calla Isaac made 36 saves for the Bears.
