A slow start in the second half by the Bank of Guam Lady Strykers opened the door for Quality Distributors to take over in the late semifinal match, as the winning team powered in eight goals in the deciding half for a 9-3 win.
Quality’s Paige Surber and Paris “Mames” Blas each scored second-half hat tricks and teammate Jodie Nelson scored two goals. Franshay Shippey scored Quality’s other goal. Alexy Dacanay scored twice for the Lady Strykers and teammate Jinae Teria also scored.
