The Bobcats continued to put pressure on the Lady Bearcat defense, tallying 11 shots, but were unable to add to their lead before halftime.

Russell scored her second goal of the afternoon just 15 seconds into the second half, and Frostburg's offense continued to press.  Lady Bearcat goalie Jackie Novak was strong, making six saves over the second half, but SVC was uanble to cut into the Frostburg lead, and Russell tallied the hat trick on an unassisted goal with 40 seconds remaining in regulation.
