In the second period, Kyra Irwin and Mayme Scott put the Wolverines right back in the picture, taking the 3-2 lead, however, Nina Thorson would net her second goal of the game to tie things back at 3-3. Sarah Stauber would make it a 4-3 Storm lead, but not before Natalie Bergman net her second goal of the game to end the period tied at 4-4.

In the third period, Rock Ridge took control, as Mayme Scott scored her second goal and Bergman scored her third to give the Wolverines a 6-4 lead. Berkley Hoff scored again, but Bergman found the back of the net for a fourth time to increase the lead back to two goals.

Nina Thorson scored with 15 seconds left, but it was too late for North Shore to complete a comeback.
