Just one minute later, Emma Kuciapinski led Laural Erick with a pass into the box and Erick finished into the left corner to make it a two-goal advantage.
 
The Wilmington defense settled in after allowing the two goals, conceding just two shots for the rest of the first half. Offensively, the Wildcats recorded six shots but could not find the back of the net. In the second, Jefferson held Wilmington to four shots, just one on goal, and added an insurance tally in the 65^th minute. Kiery Spatz set up Kuciapinski, who beat the goalkeeper with a shot from the top of the box into the right corner.
