Teaghan Hall (West Springfield, Mass.) found the equalizer with 6:30 left to play in the third period following an initial save by the Johnson & Wales goalie. Joey Brown (Scituate, Mass.) worked the puck to just above the goal line and fired it in front, where Hall jammed home her fifth goal of the season.

In overtime, Lilly Corso (Winchester, Mass.) potted her second career game-winner after picking up the loose puck from Hall. Corso pushed home the goal, sending it to the bottom right corner of the net to give the Blue and Green the edge.
