Tarnasky, who leads the Ephs in points (10 goals, 11 assists),
scored on an empty net.
Senior goaltender Denise McCulloch made 9 saves in goal for the
Ephs, while Cardinal goaltender Rachel Stemerman recorded a total
of 42 saves in the loss.
“We came out relaxed, but competitive and put together a
good, solid game tonight. It was nice to see that come together for
us,” said Coach Shannon Bryant after the game.
The Ephs will play Hamilton tomorrow at 4:00 pm.
