Fisher trailed 5-4 midway through the first half, but took the lead for good at the 12:19 mark when
Lauren Glavin (Corcoran/Syracuse) found the back of the net to give the Cardinals a 6-5 advantage.
The goal sparked a 6-0 run to bridge the intermission, which gave Fisher a 12-6 lead just nine minutes into the second half. The Soaring Eagles cut the lead down to four with back-to-back goals just 15 seconds apart, but senior All-American
Laurie Quackenbush (Penn Yan Academy/Penn Yan) took over from there, putting the game out of reach with three of her four goals coming in the final half of the second stanza.
Quackenbush and
Glavin each finished with a game-best five points on four goals and one assist, while
Ashley Fenyn (Newark/Newark) (three goals), and
Danielle Whyte (Honeoye Falls-Lima/Honeoye Falls) (one goal, two assists) netted three points each for Fisher.
Emily Burkhardt (Livonia/Livonia), joined
Mary Stimson (Cicero-North Syracuse/Cicero) with two points, while
Dana DiIorio (Corning West/Painted Post),
Allison Christie (East Syracuse-Minoa/Syracuse),
Jackie Maynard (Marcus Whitman/Stanley), and
Trish Scudder (Corning East/Beaver Dams) added one goal each in the win.
Fisher improves to 7-3 overall, 4-1 in the Empire 8, and will return to action at 5 p.m. on Tuesday take on host Hamilton College.
