Rush captured its ninth girls national title -- one more than the Dallas Texans -- and third back-to-back championship with a 4-2 win over Eclipse Select in the Stewart Cup final. The University of Portland's Danielle Foxhoven was the hero with a hat trick -- the first goal of the game in the 83rd minute and goals at the end of each overtime session.

Eclipse Select won its fifth National Championship and the second for Coach Rory Dames.
