QUARTER 1
Clare Bryar scored two times to give the Mighty Macs a one goal lead at the
conclusion of the first period. Leslie Calabrese scored the lone goal of the
first frame for the Redhawks. Bryar's goal came after Kristen Kleist made a
perimeter steal on the hosts' first possession and led Bryar with a lofted
pass that she slotted into the right corner. Calabrese tied the game soon
after, taking a pass from Madison Nervig and scoring from five meters out.
Central goalie Erin Reagan made two key saves in the next two minutes, the
second coming on Meg Golon's attempt from close range. McAuley's Sarah
Abbott returned the favor with a crucial save on the other end on a seven
meter attempt by Michelle Spaits. Late in the period, Fran Williamson found
Bryar open at seven meters, and she connected on a shot to the left corner
to give the visitors a 2-1 lead at the end of the opening quarter.
QUARTER 2
The defenses clamped down in the second period, with neither team able to
score through the first five minutes of play. The best chance came from
Central's Calabrese, who just missed from five meters. In the last minute of

penalty shot attempt away from goal to preserve the one goal advantage. With
time winding down in the half, Bryar scored from nine meters at the buzzer,
giving McAuley a 3-1 halftime lead.
QUARTER 3
Sarah Abbott made a save early in the period and assisted Fran Williamson on
a goal from five meters to give McAuley a 4-1 lead. Midway through the
quarter, Abbott made another key save and found Vicky Arciniega wide open on
the other end of the pool; she had no problem lobbing over the Central
goalie to make the score 5-1. Calabrese had the best chance of the quarter
for the Redhawks, but her tip attempt at two meters went just over the
crossbar. On the other end, Kleist scored her first goal from five meters
after an ejection, then Bryar scored her second straight end-of-the-period
goal to increase the McAuley lead to 7-1
QUARTER 4
The Redhawks inched closer to McAuley after Kristina Altuve scored in the
first minute of the final period. The Mighty Macs responded when Amy Kopale
assisted Emily Bowens after working a 2-on-1 in front of the Central goal.
Altuve connected on her second goal of the period with a lob from outside
seven meters and near poolside. Reagan then denied two close range chances
