Lauren Roberts tied the game at 10-10 with 20:36 remaining on a two-man advantage following a pair of Ferrum cards.

Reagan Aldridge's goal with 14:26 remaining in the second half started a three-goal unanswered run for the visitors however. Goals from Annika Benson (after a crucial caused turnover from Hannah Sherin) and Roberts made it a one-goal game with 2:16 remaining but the Panthers won the draw and Aldridge tallied again with 39 seconds left.

Ferrum took its first lead of the game by scoring twice just 12 seconds apart, converting right off the draw to make it 4-3 with 19:06 left in the first half.

The Panthers led 7-5 and had an Eagle player off for a yellow card, but Brooks made her third save of the possession to avoid falling further behind. Roberts snuck a free position shot just over the goalline to get Bridgewater back within one.
