EOU finished with two shots on goal, while Oregon Tech failed to capitalize on its 12 shots on goal. The Mountaineers recorded five shots and OIT had 23. Tech’s Rebekah Nesbit had a game-high six shots, putting three on the net.

Eastern goalkeeper Chantal Schefers finished with a shutout after making 12 saves. Anna Tozier made one save for the Owls.
