The Tigers did become the first EvCo team to score on Black Hills (7-1-1, 4-0 in league play), when Alayna Miller tapped in her own rebound, breaking a 263-minute shutout streak for the Wolves.

Sydney Lowe scored the game’s first goal in the seventh minute on a solo run up the middle and Megan Lowe made in 2-0 in the 16th minute off a crossing pass from Brown.

Miller’s tally in the 23rd minute kept the game close until midway through the second half when Black Hills, which outshot the Tigers 33-5, erupted for four goals in 15 minutes.

Two long range bombs by Brown out the game out of reach at 4-1.  Rachel Ruell and Megan Lowe added insurance goals.
