The Wolverines started out strong with a shot on goal in the 45th minute. However, the Cougars responded with their second goal of the game (2-0) in the 51st minute when Colohan and Flake assisted on a cross to Folino who pushed it past the goalkeeper as she slid to the ground.

Just six minutes later, Flake scored a goal of her own as she went one on one with the goalie. She took the ball into the left side of the box past the keeper and fired a shot into the back of the net, putting BYU up 3-0.
