Five minutes before the intermission, Abby Solderholm put in her eighth goal of the season to tie the game. Solderholm's goal came on a free kick. She was at it again after the break when she put a header into the back of the net for her second goal of the game. Kenzie Weisman assisted on the goal.

It looked like the Falcons might fly away victorious, but Eau Claire tied it up with less than two minutes left in regulation. Sami Matuszak put in a goal to tie the game and send the game into overtime.

Five minutes into OT, Eau Claire put in the winning goal. Tara Dennehy scored the goal with her fifth of the season to lead Eau Claire to victory.
