HEWS answered back with two goals; one of Smardz and Phillips and then Allie Schmirl had one in and then out and finally in, assisted by Ellie Grabowski. Williamsville closes the second period with a goal from Besancon, assisted by Addison Stachura, to close out the second-place tie at 6-2 in favor of HEWS.
Third period it was HEWS on board first with a goal from Phillips, assisted by Brynn Holland and Megan Cooper. Williamsville answers back as Illios gets one past Ella Buczynski, assisted by Anna Meyer and Besancon. HEWS responds with another goal from the Netherlands, without help.
