Stevenson held its one goal advantage for an entire period before giving up three second period goals, including one on the power-play, to give the host Blazers a 3-1 lead at the second intermission.

An opening third period power-play goal by team leading scorer Stephanie Kirk gave St. Benedict a three goal advantage 1:44 into the period.

The Mustangs lead Division III with 22.5 penalty minutes per game and have given up five power-play goals in the last three games. The team however ranks in the top-20 with a 92.9 penalty kill percentage.

Stevenson finished 2-for-5 on the power-play while St. Benedict (1-5-0) went 2-for-8.
