In a battle of two teams looking to reach the NCAA quarterfinals for the first time in program history, Denver prevailed over Michigan 9-5 behind a suffocating defense. Denver allowed just one goal in the first 44 minutes of action, with Katherine Fischer forcing four turnovers and Carson Gregg making six saves. Quintin Hoch-Bullen provided the offense for the Pioneers, scoring five goals. Molly Garrett scored twice for Michigan and Mira Shane made 11 saves. Photos by Richard Palaikis II.
