After falling behind 2-0 in the first half, freshman Celia Klemstein scored the first goal of her college career at 37:21 to put Lakeland (0-6, 0-2) down 2-1 entering halftime.

Marian stormed out of halftime to score the next six goals of the contest before sophomore Kristina Borts recorded her first goal of the season at 83:23.

The Muskies tallied four shots in each half as they were out-shot 44 to eight by the host Sabres.
