According to Coach May Dow

The game was full of energy and I thought the girls did a great job fighting back from being down 3-0 before halftime.  We came out strong and carried the momentum throughout the second half where we held John Bapst scoreless in the second half. We made adjustments at halftime and I thought we did a better job shutting down their combination passes in the second half. Both teams played hard and played to the very end of the game.

MDI's Cassia Barnes made 11 saves on 15 shots while John Bapst's goalie Kayla Massey stopped 13 of 16 shots.
