After junior Alexis Parker, freshman Lily Ferguson got in on the scoring, Regis found themselves ahead 6-0 less than 10 minutes into the game. Junior Monica Looney netted the final goal of the first half which put the Rangers in front by 14 goals, while holding the home team scoreless with zero shot attempts.
