The Mavericks retook the lead on a Courteney Murray goal, but Olivia Petrosky quickly evened it at 2-2. A late man-up goal from Sadie Chappuis gave Colorado Mesa a 3-2 edge after the first quarter. The Mavericks extended their lead to 4-2 early in the second on a Carson Dickey man-up goal, but Williamson cut it back to one with a man-down goal.
