Washington and Lee would control much of the action in the first half and took a 12-1 lead into the break. The Maroons would score four, second half goals but it wasn't' enough as the Generals picked up the 17-5 victory.  

How it Happened:

• The Generals would score five goals in the first 10 minutes of play.
• With 12:25 left before the half, the Maroons would get on the board when Tiernan Connor scored off a feed from Maddie Stopkoski.
• W&L would take a 12-1 advantage into the break after a first half that would see the visitors enjoy a 16-6 edge in shots.
• Lilly Blair scored an unassisted goal less than two minutes into the second frame.
• Five unanswered scores by the generals would eliminate any thoughts of a RC comeback.
• Kyla Popielaski and Molly Kasemeyer would add unassisted goals before Ellie Armstrong scored the final goal of the night off a pass from Kasemeyer.
• Carly Schoudel faced 21 shots on goal and recorded four saves.
