Sophomore forward Brianna Spinelli broke open the scoring 3:41 into the opening quarter. Rivier's lead would double over 10 minutes later as junior Reilly Swislosky tipped in a shot by senior midfielder Madison Bovill.
 
Graduate forward Kayla Miles extended the Raiders' lead to three 1:54 into the second quarter with an unassisted tally. Rivier would hold a 3-0 lead going into halftime as senior keeper Kylie Coupal totaled three saves.
 
Junior goalie Lily Gifford came in for the final 30 minutes of regulation and watched as Rivier's offense produced three additional goals coming off the sticks of Bovill, Swislosky, and Hailey Morse to come away with its second non-conference win of the campaign.
