Lary was the main catalyst on the night, notching four goals while nine Wolverines added multi-goal games in the winning cause. Sophomore Alexis Pavle (Grosse Pointe, Mich./Grosse Pointe South) earned the Wolverines' four draw controls, while freshman Maggie Preketes (Flint, Mich./Flint Powers) earned six groundballs for the game-high.
