Providence got on the board with a tally from senior Brooke Simpson (Boxborough, Mass.) in the slot to make it 2-1. Seniors Beth Hanrahan (Poolesville, Md.) and Allison Micheletti were credited with the helpers.

The Huskies scored again towards the closing of the second (17:36), to again bring its lead to two (3-1). Providence had the advantage in shots again in the period, 12-9.

UConn added a power-play goal by Kelly Harris in the third (1:38) to the score to its eventual final of 4-1. The goal was assisted by Theresa Knutson.
