Junior Jennifer Sifers seized the puck behind the net on the forecheck and tried to wrap-around a shot on Wildcats netminder Melissa Bourdon. The puck slipped across the crease to Solley, who beat Bourdon inside the left post for the go-ahead score. “Originally a lot of those [scoring] chances started up in our own end,” junior Katie...
