Sophomore Luna Moyer scored the go-ahead goal, assisted by senior Lily Wagner, with 2:38 left in the game.

"When we went down in the second half, our girls dug deep and refused to back down," head coach Michael Reese said. "They fought with heart, they fought with grit, and they came storming back with two unanswered goals. Every single player emptied the tank tonight, and that's what made this senior night so special."

Wyalusing edged Wellsboro 11-9 in shot attempts, however the Lady Hornets had a commanding 11-1 advantage in corner kicks. Junior Jadyn Dunlap made 10 saves in goal.
