After being scoreless for most of the first and second period, Panther’s Sam Ward opened the scoring the 0.8 seconds on the second period clock. Sam added another goal in the third period while Amber Miller put the Crusaders way for good with her goal three minutes later. Assists on the Panthers goal were from Cailey Jones and Alex Staley.
