Neither team managed to find the net in the first half. The Warriors refocused after the halftime break, which broke things loose and opened up multiple opportunities. After a couple of unlucky bounces and cross-bar strikes, Ally Oppenhuizen eventually managed to net a goal. 

Sydney Betten closed out the scoring on the night with a goal of her own.
