HOW IT HAPPENED
Julia Hamilton (Williamstown, Mass./Deerfield Academy ) scored both of her goals in the first three minutes of action, the first of which would eventually stand up as the game-winner. After Harris found the back of the net at the 26:20 mark, it was Garner's turn to go back-to-back in less than a minute to give the Pioneers a 5-0 lead just 5:11 into the contest.

Ferraro netted an unassisted goal with 23:31 on the clock before Sturtevant scored twice for her first goals of the season. Natalie Schad (Fitchburg, Wisc./Verona Area) registered her first collegiate goal with 7:06 left in the first half. The Pioneers went into halftime with a comfortable 14-0 lead.

Garner and Williams scored the lone goals in the second half for the 16-0 final.
