KEY MOMENTS
After numerous attempts throughout both halves, UD (13-1-5, 7-0-3) finally busted through on Wilson's sixth goal of the season. Junior Noel Blain set up the play with a masterful flick to senior Natalie Hegg, who then sent a pass to the back post. Wilson was on the waiting end of the touch, giving the Flyers the victory.
