Triplett got the scoring started when she lifted a shot over UIS goalkeeper Kelli Kubal for her first goal of the season.

Reuther, Bellarmine's leading scorer on the season, scored her fourth goal of the season in the 57th minute when she picked up a deflection and put it into the back of the net.
