(1:45, 3^rd period, EV) Quinnipiac 4, Bemidji 0: Zoe Boyd joined in on the action after a turnover by Bemidji in their own end led to a Jess Schryver shot. Boyd found the loose puck in a mess of Bobcats and Beavers and tucked it by Hogenson.
(12:06, 3^rd period, EV) Quinnipiac 5, Bemidji 0: Samoskevich notched her first of the year when Shay Maloney moved the puck up the boards to Labad who backhanded the pass to Samoskevich in the slot to go just over the top of Hogenson's glove side.
