The Gators jumped out to a 2-0 lead over the Wolves, but Keuka College responded. Katie Deatherage scored on a free-position shot. Rosie Wallace won the ensuing draw control. Ayers ended with the ball and fed Bonetti for the goal to tie the game at 2-2. However, Allegheny used the same plan as they took the lead back 28 seconds later. That sparked a run of five straight for Allegheny to build a 7-2 lead after the first.

The run continued as the home team scored three more goals. Bonetti snapped the goalless drought for the Wolves 53 seconds before halftime with a woman-up goal, but Allegheny scored before the final horn to lead 11-3 at the half.

After assisting on Bonetti's goal to end the first half, Rylie Pratt scored her first collegiate goal with Liz Spin getting the assist. The teams would trade goals as the Gators scored. Brooklyn Ayers notched a tally for the Wolves, but Allegheny answered back again as the Gators took a 13-5 lead into the final quarter.

Ayers scored her second goal of the game to start the fourth quarter. Brooke Bonetti followed with a goal to cut the margin to six with seven minutes left to play. However, that would be as close as Keuka would make it. The Gators scored in the final seconds and defeated the Wolves 14-7.
