TORONTO (May 9, 2025) – Lee Stecklein led the Minnesota Frost to a 5-3 win over the Toronto Sceptres Friday night at Coca-Cola Coliseum, scoring two goals and adding an assist to help even the series at 1-1. The Sceptres took a 1-0 lead after the first period, thanks to a goal from Hayley Scamurra, but Stecklein’s two goals, along with a tally from Michela Cava, helped Minnesota storm back with three straight goals in the second period to make the score 3-1. Toronto responded with a quick two-goal burst from Savannah Harmon and Allie Munroe just 27 seconds apart in the final minutes of the frame, tying the game at 3-3 heading into the third period.

Maddie Rooney earned the victory in her first start of the series, making 27 saves, while Kristen Campbell stopped 20 shots for Toronto in the loss.
