The third and fourth period would demonstrate an even matchup between the two opponents as they fired off four shots each within the second half. 
 
Florence Harrison (Melbourne, Australia/Balwyn High School) and Lidia Vasquez-Sinisi (Selden, N.Y./Newfield) split time in net for the Valiants, recording seven saves combined and giving up three goals. 
 
Sabina Cosmo (Harrison, N.Y./Harrison)  would record her first collegiate defensive save, and tally the first save by a non-Valiant goalkeeper this season. The Rangers held a 6-5 advantage in penalty corners in the contest.
