The Cardinals improve to 2-4-0 on the season and 1-3-0 in the Great Lakes Valley Conference. The Prairie Stars sink to 2-4-0 overall and 0-4-0 in the GLVC. 

Jewell and UIS headed into the halftime intermission level at 0-0 with the home team holding an 8-6 edge in shots.

Ethan Delaney then scored the first of his two goals one minute into the second half off a pass from Kit Russell.  He scored his second goal of the game at the 78 minute mark off a pass from Brodi Sabiston. 

UIS ended with a 14-11 advantage in shots and Joe Keeven turned aside nine shots in the game for the Cardinals.
