During the second period both the Bison offense and defense came alive, shutting out the Tigers and posted four more goals. Kimmy McKinney got the Bison rolling, netting the first goal of the second in the 48^th minute. Kaylee Swaner then posted the fourth goal of the day ten minutes later. Katie Fowler (59^th minute) and Madison Morgan (83^rd minute) scored the final two goals to give the Bison the 6-1 victory.
 
OBU put up 25 total shots with 15 landing on goal and finished with five assists. Hannah Evans led the team in assists with two. Hannah White, Kitchel, and Fowler each chalked up an assist apiece.
