Marsh pounded home a feed from Caroline DiGiovanni just inside the right post as the Beavers took a 3-0 lead with 5:37 to go in the opening frame.

Marguerite took a feed from Reed and fired in a shot from the top of the circle with 9:21 on the second quarter clock and the Beavers took a comfortable 5-0 margin into the intermission.

The Green and White exploded with three goals in less than two minutes early in the third quarter. Marguerite sent Evans in on goal with a lead pass on the right side and Evans buried the shot past Collins. Roe fed Croci from the right side for a goal less than a minute later, and Marsh set up Roe less than a minute after that as the Babson lead ballooned to 8-0 with eight minutes to go in the third quarter.

With many of the reserves in the game, Babson scored its final goal with five minutes to go in the game when Goettsche took a penalty shot and ripped a shot into the left corner of the cage to round out the scoring.
