How It Happened
- The Shorewomen got the first shot of the game 6:56 into the game on a Kailyn Brandt shot, but it was stopped by Griffins' goalie Abi Kennedy.
- Gwynedd Mercy got onto the board with 9:30 left in the first half when Lauren Jani tipped in a shot from Michaela Swenk.  The goal capped a sequence of three penalty corners for the visitors in less than 90 seconds.

- Olivia Auer grabbed the rebound of Steele's shot, but her scoring chance was thwarted on a defensive save by Gwynedd Mercy's Kathryn Lehman two seconds after Steele's shot hit the post.
