Following the break, senior Jennifer Holton (Johnstown, Ohio) tallied her third goal of the season in the 56th minute after she connected with the back of the net when she connected from a senior Shara Perry (Hilliard, Ohio) pass.

The Panthers added an insurance goal in the 60th minute as sophomore Broegan Sautter (Bellville, Ohio) recorded her first collegiate score off a corner kick.

Sophomore goalie Laura Clark (Lapeer, Mich.) closed out the game with seven saves.
