Two minutes later, Korte scored on a rebound off of Pitt-Johnstown goalkeeper Leigh Appolonia, before the Lakers increased it to 3-1 in the 34th minute on Bock's goal off of Maggie Hilton's throughball from midfield.
 
The Mountain Cats got on scoreboard seven minutes into the second half when Vollmer's shot found the back of the net behind Mercyhurst goalkeeper Vilde Wold.
