Webster would make it a one goal game at the 6:21 mark of the second quarter but Tacoma scored two more goals to close out the quarter, including Scott’s first with just 3.3 seconds left to take a 4-1 lead into the half.

Bellingham came roaring back early in the third quarter with a pair of goals in the first four minutes of the second half with Teya Mischaikov’s goal with 11:17 left making it a one goal game again, 4-3. But Tacoma closed the quarter with Slawson and Scott’s second goals of the game to make it 6-3. Bellingham added a goal midway through the fourth quarter but the comeback fell short and the Galaxy knocked off the Hammers 6-4.
