The Bears made it a 2-0 contest at 5:14 of the second period. Ott had an initial shot stopped by Frasca, but the rebound popped out to the right post and senior captain Izzy Fayerman (Calgary, Alberta/The Edge) recorded to goal. Defensive stops by both teams held the offense to six shots a piece during the stanza.

Jillian Witwicki drew the Purple Knights within one goal 5:58 into the third period, picking the upper right corner from the slot following a scramble out front during a power play. The Purple Knights were the beneficiaries of two more power plays in the stanza, including during a 5-on-3 advantage that lasted for 29 seconds, but the best chance for either team came when junior forward Sally Mooney (New Albany, Ohio/Wyoming Seminary) skated in alone with her squad down one woman with 4:17 remaining. Frasca denied that bid with her right pad. As the game continued and the clock wound down, Frasca was pulled for an extra skater with 1:32 left and Greene clinched the win by scoring from near center ice as 25 seconds remained on the clock.

"Alison, Jordan and Izzy were our offensive punch tonight", said head coach Jay Green. "Rachel Grefke and Katie Marsman played solid defense throughout the game with Rodrigue powerful between the posts."

Junior goalie Alexane Rodrigue (Monkland, Ontario/Bemidji State) finished with 22 saves while her counterpart Frasca stopped 24.
