Hamilton erased an 8-5 Williams lead with five straight goals in the last 13:15 then withstood a late push by the Ephs to snap a three-game series losing streak. The hosts scored with 67 seconds left to cut Hamilton's lead to a goal then had a shot to tie the score but Hamilton's Hannah Rubin '17 made the last of her career-high 11 saves to seal the win.

After the Ephs used a 6-2 run to go up 8-5 with just under 14 minutes left in regulation the Continentals started their comeback. Madison Beres '15 and Morgan Fletcher '17 converted free-position shots to pull Hamilton to within a goal before goals by Ashleigh Stephan '15 and Darby Philbrick '18 58 seconds apart put Hamilton ahead to stay.

After Margaret Gabriel '16 netted her second goal of the game with 2:11 left to give the visitors a two-goal lead, the Ephs made it a one-goal game on a score by Natalie Gill '16. A turnover by the Continentals after the ensuing draw set up Williams' final possession, but a shot by Hillary Cook '15 – who had scored twice already – was saved by Rubin.

Fletcher scored a game-high three goals and added an assist for a career-best four points. Gabriel and Stephan contributed a pair of goals apiece.

Bridget Malicki '15 led Williams with three points, scoring two goals and assisting on another during the Ephs' 6-2 stretch. She assisted on a goal by Nancy Palmer '15 (her second) to cap the run.

Williams' Becca Bell '15 led all players with six ground balls and four caused turnovers. Gill controlled five draw controls and Palmer won four.

 Stephan and Hannah Withiam '16 both picked up four ground balls for Hamilton and Caroline McCarthy '16 caused a career-best three turnovers.

The Continentals host No. 10 Tufts Saturday at noon. The Ephs, who have lost three in a row, host Wesleyan Saturday.
