The game remained 2-0 until the 82nd minute when Michayla Salatel (Geneseo) turned and scored her 12th goal of the season after getting a pass from midfield from Olivia Welton (Orchard Park). 56 seconds later Dannielle O'Buckley (Jamaica/Ansbach) took a Hazleton turnover and chipped the ball high into the net to add an insurance goal.

The Pioneers held a 34 to 10 shot advantage in the contest. Madison Papaj (Holley) made three saves to record her sixth shutout of the season.

During the Pioneers seven game winning streak the team has recorded six shutouts and has outscored their opponents 31 to 1.
