The Cardinals threatened early against the Wolves, but Elianna Wilder was there with a pair of big saves. However, a misplay by the Wolves would lead to a St. John Fisher goal in the 17th minute. The lead did not last long, however. Peyton Miller (Mercer, Pa. / Mercer) sprung Shayla Vetter in on goal. The senior split the defender and cut around the charging keeper before depositing the ball in the back of the net to make it 1-1. While the stats favored the Cardinals, the Wolves did a good job with possession and limiting the chances by St. John Fisher. The game would go to halftime tied 1-1.
Wilder continued to come up big for the Wolves making a pair of difficult saves to keep the game tied at one. The pressure by the Cardinals proved too much in the 81st minute as they took a 2-1 lead. Fisher doubled the lead minutes later as Wilder made the first save but the second shot was hit in. The Wolves had a chance late but the shot was deflected wide. Keuka College fell to St. John Fisher 3-1 on Saturday.
