The Presidents jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the game's first two minutes before Hannah Gray struck for Macalester and, after Washington & Jefferson restored its two-goal lead, Zexin Nai scored to make it a 3-2 score after one quarter.

From there, the Presidents dominated the next 16 minutes, outscoring the Scots, 14-2, in the second and third quarters to but the game out of reach.

Gray and Hannah Bonestroo scored Macalester's goals in the middle quarters and Nai, Bonestroo and Sarah Shoemaker scored in the final eight minutes as Macalester outscored W&J, 3-2, in the fourth quarter.
