The Green and Gold scored three goals in each half of the game, as Alyssa Fuccillo and Katie Ziemba recorded two goals apiece. Katelynn Mello and Paige Thowe also picked up goals of their own.
 
Helping out on assists were Katie Ziemba, Kayli Burr and Gianna Salerno, who received the first assist of her collegiate career. Another career first in today's game was Ella Buchanan's first career shutout as the freshman goalkeeper adds to her resume.
