HOW IT HAPPENED
- Ashlyn Bode kicked off the massive first quarter with a goal at 11:19 for the early lead with Concordia Wisconsin (7-8, 5-4 NACC) answering a minute later. MSOE (7-10, 6-3 NACC) went on a five goal run to lead 6-1 with just under three minutes remaining in the first. After the Falcons broke up the run, the Raiders rifled in three more, including Bode finishing her hat trick to lead 9-2 after one.
- The Falcons began the second with a pair of goals to cut it down to a five-goal game with the Raider scoring three straight. The Falcons converted on a free-position attempt that was countered with 43 seconds to play in the first half with Chloe Ninmann converting on one to close out her hat trick to lead 13-6 at the break.
- Two goals from the Falcons to open the second half cut it down to a five-goal difference but were answered as Vayda Flower fed goals to Lilly Johnson and Ninmann to make it 15-8. The Falcons closed out the quarter with two more goal to bring it back to a five goal game. Joce Katte kicked off the third with a man-down as Flower and Maggie Sanderson connected with under four minutes to play. The Falcons made one last push to cut the deficit, but Bode on a free-position with 1:16 to play sealed things.
