INSIDE THE GAME

• After few opportunities for both teams in the opening minutes, halfway through the first Michigan Tech opened the scoring in the 24^th minute. Northwood's Allison Carroll was called for a penalty making an illegal slide tackle in her own goalie's box. Michigan Tech's Jacqueline Mielke was awarded a penalty kick and scored to put the Huskies up 1-0.
• Just over a minute later, the Huskies would strike once again to make it 2-0.
• Michigan Tech rode the 2-0 lead into halftime but picked up the scoring almost immediately in the second half when the Huskies scored 56 seconds in, opening a 3-0 advantage.
• Northwood's best chances to cut into the lead came in the 65^th minute. Midfielder Savannah King had a rebound come out to her on the right side of the net, but her ensuing shot was deflected up high just wide of the left post. Junior Sara Lamphere had an opportunity seconds later spinning right in front of the Huskies keeper, but failed to put it in past the leg of a defender in the way as the ball deflected off of her and out of the box.
• The score remained 3-0 as the game concluded and Michigan Tech earned the victory.
