Black Ice scored first with Aislinn Bremner and Karly Howard getting the ball to Katelyn Roetcisoender to put it away for the goal. Seaforth came right back though. Black Ice goalie Chantal Warwick stopped an initial shot from Seaforth offense, but got the next one past her. Seaforth followed quickly with another goal. Black Ice came right back with a goal by Marcedes Pavao with assists from Roetcisoender and Cassie Salverda, and a breakaway goal by Howard. Seaforth tied it up again, but Larissa Jenkins scored from the faceoff circle to win it for Black Ice. Student wins bursary BBLLYYTTHH PPRRIINNTTIINNGG IINNCC..
