GAME RECAP
- St. Lawrence tallied the first goal of the game at 13:58 into the first period. Shailynn Snow turned quickly at the hash marks finding Kayla Vespa behind the net. Vespa slid the puck out front to Anna Segedi who quickly fired a shot just to the left of UNH goaltender Ava Boutilier (Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island).
- St. Lawrence scored again at 17:23 into the first period. Anna Segedi found the puck in front of the net after a blocked shot. She put the puck back on net, but her initial shot was saved but she then proceeded to score off her own rebound sending the puck into the left lower side of the net.
- UNH scored its first goal 18:32 into the first period. Tamara Thiérus (Saint-Jérôme, Quebec) was able to poke the puck to Paige Rynne who backhanded it towards the goal and the puck landed just over Jamie Rainville's left shoulder.
- St. Lawrence scored their third goal 3:54 into the second period on a 5-on-3 power play. Rachel Teslak passed the puck from the blue line to Segedi and proceeded to crash the net. Segedi hit her back with a quick pass from the corner. Teslak took a shot land landed to the left of Boutilier.
- The Wildcats then went on a four goal unanswered streak; Carlee Turner (Scottsdale, Ariz.) started the run 10:00 into the second period. Finding the puck at the blue line from Thiérus, Turner carried it to the top of the right circle where she launched a shot to the top left of the net on the breakaway.
- UNH tallied its third goal just 26 seconds later. Meghara McManus (Milton, Mass.) had another breakaway and fired a wrist shot from the top of the right circle which was saved by Rainville. McManus managed to get past the two defensemen to get her own rebound which she slid behind Rainville on the right.

The Wildcat's were on a powerplay when Taylor Wenczkowski (Rochester, N.H.) passed up to Tori Howran (Bancroft, Ontario) at the blue line who found Emily Rickwood on the left face off dot.
