• Hadden began the second stanza with two straight goals that trimmed the SNHU deficit to 6-5 with 6:44 remaining in the first half. It was still a one-goal game when the visitors notched two straight, including one with four seconds on the clock, to bring a 9-6 advantage to the break.
• Assumption scored two of the three third-quarter goals to widen the gap to 11-7 going to the fourth quarter.
• The teams alternated goals in the final frame, with SNHU never getting closer than four the rest of the way.

• Hadden's 84 points this season pull her into a fourth-place tie with Emily Mongeau (2011) on SNHU's single-season list. She remains third in assists (39).
• Hadden, McInnis, Pietz, Rachel McLaughlin (Woburn, Mass.), Layne Walther (Center Moriches, N.H.), Nina Liquori (Agawam, Mass.) and Brooke Deily (Doylestown, Pa.) were all honored in a Senior Day ceremony prior to the contest.
