The Blue Streaks score five minutes into the game, and made the one goal stand up. John Carroll kept the pressure on the Fightin' Quakers, outshooting WC 14-5. Junior Brooke Lamb (Waynesville, OH/Clinton-Massie) managed Wilmington's only shot on goal.

Sophomore Rachelle Bowen (Xenia, OH/Xenia) recorded Wilmington's three other shots.
