St. Joe's scored all its goals with less than 5 minutes left in each half.

"I think we just held up longer at the end of each half," St. Joe's coach Betsy D'Agostino said. "We played a little bit harder and it paid off.

"It takes us a while to warm up, I must say. It takes us a while to get in there, and then we find our niche."
