The team maintained a strong offense throughout the period, with a goal from Valdesalice, three consecutive goals from Darcy Malik and another goal from Valdesalice, ending the first period leading 6-0.
The girls expanded their lead in the second period with a goal by Darcy Malik, finishing the period with a 7-0 lead. Midway through the third period, Lower Merion scored its first goal. The girls finished out the game with three more goals from junior Joanna Harris, Kaiser and Darcy Malik to win 10-1.
