Duluth then came out in the second half and added a second goal five minutes in, as Brittany Brown scored the Bulldogs second header on a pass from Alex Paffrath.
St. Cloud State came back in a flash, scoring 31 seconds later to cut the lead in half at 2-1. Freshman Margie Jancik (Inver Grove Heights) scored her third goal of ths season as junior Lindsey Sather sent a pass out front that was misplayed by the Bulldog defender.
