  • The Cougars responded just before the first half ended when Katelyn Greiner was played a ball from Carly Gleason, which saw Greiner wind up from just outside the box to put it away in the top left corner of the goal
  • SJLI would pull ahead early in the second half when Rosario played a ball into the box, allowing Esposito to get her right foot on the ball to play to the right side of the net to pull St. Joseph's ahead by one in the second half  
  • Kean looked to tie the game late as Morgan Napolitano beat the backline to be one-on-one with the keeper and played it off the left post to keep the Golden Eagles ahead by one and secure the victory

  • The Golden Eagles finished with five corner kicks to the Cougars one
