The second half started with back-to-back Stag tallies, but the two teams traded goals, 3-3 in the first 10:08, with the Stags holding a 19-10 lead.  Fairfield scored four straight in just under six minutes to put the game away, finishing the game on a 6-1 run.

Lucena and Kristen Coleman led the Stags offensive attack with five points apiece.  Coleman had a pair of goals and a team-high three assists.  Of the 14 players who recorded a point in the game for Fairfield, 10 of them scored multiple points.  Abbey Goodwin and Rebecca White each had three goals and an assist for four points.
