Cross and Smith each completed their four-goal games early in the third quarter to make it 13-0. Estock assisted on Smith's final tally, then had the helper on
Chloe Pender's goal in the final minute of the third to make it 14-0 through 45 minutes.
Taraska would be the third player to score four for Berry as her tally 30 seconds into the final quarter came on Estock's fifth and final assist. She would complete the Texas hat trick with her fourth goal of the game with 11:37 to go, capping the scoring for the Vikings in the game.
