A power play puck put away by Alyssa Murphy at the middle of the first period allowed WNE to gain a one-goal edge over Suffolk.  

The Golden Bears doubled that distance 5:31 into the middle period as Maddie Pope found the back of the net.  

Suffolk started to catch up at the 12:14 mark when Jenna Caballero chipped the pucka way. The junior was set-up by Liv O'Brien and Liliana Moose. 

Moose scored her own goal 4:18 later thanks to set-ups from Kate Pohl and Sammy Lassman to even things at 2-all.  

A penalty would cost the Rams in the third as Mabel Gerard converted a go-ahead power play goal 5:42 into the final period to give WNE a lead it would not give up.
