Riddle scored the final two goals of the opening stanza to give W&L a 6-1 halftime lead.

The Quakers scored first in the second frame, narrowing the lead to 6-2 on an unassisted goal by Melissa Urann at the 29:22 mark. From there, W&L would outscore GC by a 7-1 margin over the next 22 minutes in cruising to the win.
