Midway through the second, Kristen Conti took control of a ball misplayed by the Lake Erie keeper and defender at the top left side of the box and put it into an empty net for a 2-0 lead in the 64th minute. It was her eighth goal of the season which ties her with Jessie Gearhart for best on the team and third in the GLIAC.

Dani Shambaugh picked up her fifth win of the year to improve to 5-0-2 in goal. She has recorded three of the Cavs' five shutouts and split time in another. Shambaugh made five saves on 13 shots faced.
