Only minutes later Jaclyn Baratelli (Hauppauge, N.Y./ Hauppauge) and Kathryn Condron (Ridge, N.Y./ Longwood) found themselves in a 2-on -1 breakaway, with Baratelli ultimately finding the back of the net, establishing an early Eagle lead of 2-0.

Gina Guardino (Lindenhurst, N.Y./ Lindenhurst) put the seventh tally on the board for the Eagles as Hughes put the nail in York's coffin with a header into the net at 67:59.
