Â
At 12:32 in the third, Cornell's Caroline Ramsey scored on a penalty corner to give the Big Red a 2-1 lead. The Big Red struck again with 5:22 left in the third, as Hanke Govaert extended the lead to 3-1.
Â
Hogendoorn responded with a goal off a penalty corner late in the third, bringing the Mountain Hawks within one down 3-2.
