After trading momentum swings and grinding through a defensive match for three periods, St. Kate's seized control of the face off in their defensive zone won by Ana Myers. Myers carried the puck down the ice into the Cardinals zone getting a shot off with Gillespie putting away the rebound for the game-winner.
