Three lower-division teams move on to the quarterfinals

The two Neuchâtel-based teams faced each other in this round. The SWHL A team, who only scored ten goals in ten championship games, won with 27-0 against the SWHL C team. 18-year-old Veronica Bucifalova was the best scorer of the game, recording five goals. EV Bomo Thun also fulfilled their task at hand perfectly: they beat Saint-Imier (C) with 23-0. Defender Simone Minder scored four goals in the said game.

SC Weinfelden was able to celebrate their first victory of the season, as they won against SWHL B team GCK Lions. Weinfelden secured their victory with a shorthanded goal, two power-play goals and one goal at even strength. In her debut for Weinfelden, Slovakian Sara Confidenti scored her first two goals. Weinfelden now has a big chance to move on to the final tournament, as they will either face Rot-Blau Bern or the SC Rapperswil-Jona Lakers in the quarterfinal.
