- Parker then evened the score with 2:56 to play in the opening frame when Davis' shot got behind goaltender Maddy McArthur and Parker was in the perfect spot to knock it into the back of the net.

- BC added to its lead at 8:12 of the third period, but the Terriers responded with a power-play marker of their own at 14:10 of the stanza when Cook blasted a shot from the top of the zone and past McArthur.
- The Terriers pulled sophomore Corinne Schroeder (33 saves) in favor of an extra attacker for the final minute, but BC held on to escape with the win.
