The Panthers met Johns Hopkins in last year's title game as well. But unlike last year's game, both squads struggled to find the net on Sunday.
Quarter by quarter, the game went scoreless until an overtime period was needed. Even that period appeared doomed to be scoreless. But Amy Griffin had other plans.
With just 2:33 remaining in the game, she fired a shot into the net that sent her teammates rushing onto the field and secured another piece of hardware for the Panthers' trophy case.
