Claire Gamache paced the Aggies with six goals, three helpers, and four caused turnovers. Teammate Amanda McKeegan kicked in five goals.

Leading 5-4 midway in the first half, Gwynedd netted three scores in over a three-minute span to open up their lead. However Delaware Valley closed out the last 6:04 of half with six goals in a row to take a 9-8 score at the break. Goals from Jill Kane and Braeunle looked to put GMercyU ahead for good (19-12) with four minutes to go.
