The 'Hawks scored their first goal in the seventh minute when a Stacey Schultz (Menomonee Falls/Menomonee Falls) pass found Sara Brown (Lake Zurich, IL/Lake Zurich) for her first goal of the season.  Just eight minutes later the 'Hawks increased their lead to two on a Emily Gerber (DeForest/DeForest) goal off of a pass by Elizabeth Orgovan (Brookfield/Brookfield East).  Still in the first half, the Warhawks jumped out to a 3-0 lead on Stephanie DesJardins (Park Ridge, IL/Main South)' second goal of the season, also assisted by Schultz.  The fourth goal of the half was by Megan Schlect, assisted by Melanie Billinghurst (Lake Mills/Lake Mills).  Billinghurst got a goal of her own, her second of the season, off a pass by Emily Stocks (McFarland/McFarland) to finish the scoring in the first half.

Gerber scored her fifth goal of the season and the first of the second half to give the Warhawks a 6-0 lead.  Schultz again assisted on the goal giving her three for the match.  The final goal of the game was at the 67-minute mark when Pamela Lisowe (New Holstein/New Holstein) came off the bench to bury one in the net on an assist by Schlecht.

The Warhawks outshot the 'Jackets 26-3 in the match.  UW-W was whistled for 8 fouls compared to UW-Superior's 2.
