Shenandoah (2-5) was unable to answer this scoring barrage until junior Lindsey Collison scored an unassisted goal in the 61st minute.

Just 84 seconds later, the Hornets scored the final goal of the game when Kelly Matagiese tallied unassisted.

SU keeper Wendy Taylor made 15 saves on 27 shots. The Lady Maroons also peppered Taylor with 15 penalty corners.
