In the 23^rd minute, North Hills managed their only shot on net for the game and was denied by Tigers keeper Madison Martin.  The senior net minder then cleared the ball out to Monica Pike for a shot and goal in the left corner to make it 2-0, NA. 

The Tigers added on in the 31^st minute as Megan Van Kirk served in a corner kick to Lauren Briggs who finished off the play for a goal and a 3-0 Tigers advantage. The onslaught continued with goals by Savana Yurick and Gabby Smychynsky to cap off a dominating 5-0 win over the rival Indians. For the game, NA outshot North Hills, 20-1.
