GAME FLOW & NOTES

- Neither team gathered many opportunities in the first period of play, but the Bobcats took a 1-0 advantage with 3:45 remaining in the period. Kati Tabin slid the puck over to Zoe Boyd at the top of the left circle, Whitney Dove (Port Moody, British Columbia) blocked two shots in front of net before the puck redirected to Hoskin on the edge of the right circle. Hoskin buried a wrister far post past Clare Minnerath (Sartell, Minn.).

- The second period came with each side trading a goal apiece. Bailey Burton (Bloomington, Minn.) lit the lamp for her first career goal nine minutes into the second period. Dove picked up her first assist of the season putting a shot off the goalie that Burton corralled in front of the net before finishing on the back hand past Ives.

- Quinnipiac answered quickly just 1:31 later. Kenzie Prater put a shot on net from the right point that bounced around in front of the net before Taylor House hammered the loose puck home inside the crease.
