On the Record
"UConn came out with a lot of energy in the opening 10 minutes which really dictated the rest of the game," said Head Coach Ricky Fried. "We just weren't able to recover from their four early goals. I thought our defense played really strong and we fought until the very end."

• UConn jumped out to a 6-2 lead with two goals in the first six minutes of the second quarter. The Hoyas responded three minutes later when Bakes capitalized on GU's man-up opportunity. The Huskies followed up with a goal a minute later but Hazen would respond with her second goal of the contest. The Huskies landed the final goal of the half to lead the Hoyas 8-4. 
• Bakes kicked off the third quarter with two goals for GU. Rileigh Meyer battled through the UConn defense and landed a goal at the 6:43 mark to bring the Hoyas within two (9-7).

Reyes Davis capped off the scoring for UConn with a goal at 5:39 in the fourth. Emma Gebhardt landed one last goal for the Hoyas with 3:02 remaining in the contest but the Huskies would earn the 13-9 victory.
