Junior Julia Mings finished with a game-high three points on two goals and an assist. Junior Jules Kennedy also finished the game with a pair of assists. Junior Olivia Williams stopped all 44 shots she faced as she recorded her second shutout of the season.

Just over a minute later, Mings rounded out the scoring with her fifth goal of the season. Kennedy was credited with an assist on the goal.
 
The Mustangs had opportunities in the third period, but Williams made several post-to-post saves to preserve the shutout.
