Addison Cross and Jerah Kline each had eight shot attempts in the game while Madison Foster added a shot attempt of her own. Ryleigh Boutwell fi nished the game with four saves. Advancing to the semifi nals later in the day, the Lady Indians faced Cumberland Gap, a team they had defeated at home just a couple of weeks before. Another close contest would come from the game, but it was Oneida that would advance to the championship as the Lady Indians would earn the 2-1 win over the Lady Panthers. Addison Cross would score the pair of goals for Oneida while Ryleigh Boutwell would fi nish the game with 13 saves. The EUMSS Championship game would be between the Lady Indians and the hosting Cosby Lady Eagles.
