Although the Queen Bees came close to breaking the ice inside a crowded press box,
Laken Duchar-Clark was able to prevent the shot from happen by clearing the loose ball out of danger.
The Panthers broke away with a 2-0 lead midway through the first half.
Paige Eli made several touches from midfield before sending it to
Letesha Cannonier, who inside the goal box made two touches before sending the ball to the back of the net at 20:20. At the 18:50 mark, Paul took a free kick from 30 yards where she found Cannonier inside the goal box to put the finishing touch.
Paul would extend the lead to 3-0 at the 5:15 mark when she took a shot about 15 yards out from right side to find the left side of the net.
Saint Ambrose returned from the locker room with a lot of intensity, forcing the Panthers to play defense for a majority of the second half. The Queen Bees got on the board at 40:18, when a corner by Megan Theisen on the right side found the head of Erin Dierickx.
The Panthers regained the three-goal lead with 35:36 left when
Abbey Tyson used a penalty kick to beat Morgan Lynn on the left side in the net.
The Queen Bees would cut the lead in half again when Bre Choffin knocked a loose ball inside a crowded Davenport goal box into the back of the net.
