The Bearcats added to their lead twenty minutes later when Taylor Schmidt dribbled through the defense along the baseline and put a beautiful shot past the keeper to put SBU up 2-0. SBU continued their strong first half play when Amy Bolton took a ricocheted pass and hit a shot into the upper right corner of the net from 25 yards out to give Southwest Baptist a 3-0 halftime lead.

In the second half, Kate Jamison added to the scoring affair when she stole a Newman pass, dribbled past two defenders, and beat the goalie one-on-one to give SBU a 4-0 lead. The Bearcats held strong for the remainder of the game, as they went on to a 4-0 victory.

In goal, Cheyenne Forshey and Kaitlin Webb combined for the shutout, while Forshey was awarded the victory.
