The Wildcats scored a pair of even-strength goals in the first eight minutes of the game to take a 2-0 lead. Abby Pohlkamp (Baxter, Minn./Brainerd HS) cut the deficit in half with a goal at the midway point of the opening period to make it 2-1. Ashley Healy (White Bear Lake, Minn./White Bear Lake HS) and Courtney Bloemke (Nicollet, Minn./Mankato West HS) had the assists. The 2-1 score remained the rest of the period, despite the Saints having a 16-8 shots advantage in the period.
 
Rachel Anderson (Shoreview, Minn./Mounds View HS) found the net four minutes into the second period to tie the score at 2-2. Bloemke and Kayla Kasel (Forest Lake, Minn./Forest Lake HS) were credited with the assists.

After St. Kate's tied the contest five minutes into the third period, Bloemke gave the Saints lead right back two minutes later to make it 4-3. Anderson added her second of the night with 8:49 remaining with assist from Taylor Thompson (Buffalo, Minn./Buffalo HS). St. Catherine would make it a one-goal margin again two minutes later as the score stood at 5-4.
