In the second period, it was Steph Strapple scoring for the Mirage and B.J. Cline scoring for the Jaguars as PHM led it 6-3 entering the final period.

The third period was all Mirage as Alyssa Wargin and Niki Mathews had two goals each and Sam Nelson and Justina Lindberg each added one goal.

For the game, the Mirage pounded 45 shots on Jaguar goalie Hannah Vogel, while Anja Morris finished with 23 saves on 26 shots for PHM.
