Thursday, Port took their revenge on North Shore. In the previous matchup the game moved into overtime and then shootouts, where Port ultimately lost. Held on the home turf, the second game called for redemption. In the first quarter, the North Shore goalie had a penalty that allowed for a stroke. Rachel Nissan raised the ball into the net, scoring the only goal of the game. Goalie Nikki Gonzalez made 13 saves, defending the 1-0 score for the entirety of the game.

Saturday, the girls took on Locust Valley. It was a tough battle, as Locust Valley had a strong offense. Port was able to defend the goal pretty well, Goalie Nikki Gonzalez had 19 saves and Emma Ortenzi had 4. Great defensive and offensive plays were made by Kaitlyn Schwirzbin and Kaitlyn Esposito. Port was unable to score, leaving the final score 4-0.
