Beacon garnered 13 penalty corners in the contest, while giving up their first corner and their first shot of the season. Beacon goalie Sophia Connelly had one save.

“The kids played a great game today,” said Beacon coach Lynn Richardson. “Our midfield really controlled the game and did a nice job distributing the ball.”
