Story summary

On Sunday, the Calgary Wild won a decisive 3-1 victory over the Vancouver Rise despite having fewer overall shot attempts. Alex Lamontagne gave the Rise an early lead in the 35th minute with the only goal of the first half. However, Taylor Otto equalized for the Wild just two minutes into the second period, and Meggie Dougherty Howard put Calgary ahead in the 56th minute. Forward Jorian Baucom sealed the win with a third goal in the 64th minute. Despite controlling 58% of possession and outshooting Calgary 17-7, the Rise struggled to convert their opportunities, finishing with only one on-target shot compared to the Wild's 4 on-target shots. The Vancouver Rise now sit just ahead of the Halifax Tides in the race for the fourth playoff spot in the Northern Super League standings.
