Both games were tough, hard, close games that the Lady Dalers survived. In the Long Island Championship game the Lady Dalers took a quick 3-1 lead. It could have been 6-1, but with three crease violations in a row the goals were disallowed. The Lady Dalers led at halftime 7-5, but Ward Melville would keep things tight. The Lady Dalers led 9-6 with fifteen minutes left in the game, but Ward Melville's Shaylyn Blaney scored three goals in one minute and forty seconds to tie it 9-9. Ward Melville would then take the lead 10-9 with 11 minutes left. It was the first time the Lady Dalers were behind, but it would not be for long. Candace Rossi would win the next face-off and score to make it 10-10. Then Alyassa Kildare would score for the Lady Dalers to give them the lead again 11-10, but Ward Melville came right back to tie it again 11-11. Then with four minutes and thirty seconds left the Lady Dalers went ahead for good with a goal by Janine Hillier. Goalie Lauren Maksym had 13 saves to keep the Lady Dalers in the game and to give them their second consecutive Long Island Championship.
