New Hampshire defender Mike Fortin was named his team’s MVP, while Mount Mansfield’s Jacob Daigle earned that distinction for Vermont.

Colchester’s Gabby Gosselin played well in goal in the scoreless second half. Champlain Valley midfielder Natalie Durieux was named Vermont’s MVP, while Meghan Blanchette earned New Hampshire MVP honors. Rebecca Milbury played the entire game in goal to earn the shutout for New Hampshire.
