Spirk highlighted the play of sophomore Baylee Houck (Huber Heights, OH/Wayne), freshman Amy Johnson (Warsaw, OH/River View), freshman Alex Vestal (Orlanda, FL/Lake Nona) and freshman Haley Brausch (Clarksville, OH/Clinton-Massie) off the bench.
Four minutes into the game, senior Alyssa Reule (Miamisburg, OH/Miamisburg) scored off a corner kick by senior Taylor Scott (Lynchburg, OH/Lynchburg Clay). Sophomore Taylor Leake (Beavercreek, OH/Beavercreek) added an insurance goal late in the game, scoring on a free kick at the upper 90.
Junior Ana Hosler (Blanchester, OH/Blanchester) and freshman Leda Moyer (Martinsville, OH/Clinton Massie) combined for the Wilmington shutout.
