Cortland took a 1-0 lead with 9:09 left in the first half. Redmond took a penalty corner feed from Gabby Stein (Endwell/Maine-Endwell) and blasted home a shot from just inside the top of the circle. The goal was initially disallowed, but the officials conferred and determined the shot was legal.

Stein notched her second assist when she won a battle about 10 yards in front of the goal and sent a pass forward to Branch. The ensuing shot by Branch found its way through Lass' pads and into the cage. The Red Dragons tallied their final goal in the 55th minute when, on a penalty corner, Dani Barto Nichols/Tioga Central) sent a ball from the upper left of the circle to the far right post and O'Brien redirected the ball into an empty cage.
