After two more shots on net, Ariadna Lozano made it a two-goal lead with 19:24 elapsed. For the first half, SEU blasted the first six shots, all on goal, of the match before Warner had its first one turned away at 25:39.
SEU goalie Ella Sebree and the visitors' defense held Warner scoreless the entire second 45 minutes and five shots on the goal. For the match, Sebree recorded seven saves.
With the win, SEU snapped a five game losing streak and moved to 3-5-1 (2-3 SUN) on the year. The Fire also extended their 12-game win streak over Warner (3-4-1/0-4 SUN).
