Olivia Rizakos (Toronto, ON), who scored her team-leading 7th goal of the season to help the Gryphons secure a ninth straight victory. Gryphons goalkeeper
Natalie Mouradian (Kitchener, ON) made two saves while recording the clean sheet. With the loss, the Waterloo Warriors fall to 2-7-0 on the season.
