The Hawks would finally break the scoreless draw in the 39' as Sydney Henderson collected the ball near midfield and ripped a shot from 25 yards out to find the top shelf and give the Hawks the 1-0 lead into the intermission.

Second Half:

Mount Olive came out aggressive posting four shots in the first 15 minutes of action.  In the 61' following a corner kick, UMO placed a shot past a charging keeper before Monae Moore cleaned up the attempt off the line to keep the Hawks ahead.

The Trojans continued to search for the equalizer forcing Allison Traub to make a couple saves.

In the 84', Sabrina Henderson was fouled in the box allowing Michelle Maksimovic to convert from the penalty spot and give the Hawks a 2-0 advantage.  36 ticks later, Sydney Henderson would once again find the back of the net sliding one underneath the cross bar to give the Hawks a 3-0 lead.

UMO would receive the same call following a corner kick in the 85' as the Trojans converted from the spot to close the gap to 3-1.
