CWRU began its scoring early with a goal in the 18th minute of play when sophomore midfielder Lizzy Barna received a pass from junior forward Kimberly Chen and drilled a shot past the JCU keeper.

The Spartans would hold that lead for the remainder of the first half. CWRU wasted no time after the break as they struck for another goal at the 50:51 mark when Chen laced a shot into the net after she recovered the ball off of a shot from senior forward Melanie Kukura.

Less than five minutes later, the Spartans added to their lead with a goal from freshman Christina Hickson via an assist from Kukura. The goal was Hickson's second of the season.
