How It Happened
- 58:21 | After a turnover by Kutztown in their defense end, Bueno self-passed to herself over the Golden Bears defender before delivering the ball to Marshall in the middle of the box, who finished on a volley inside the right post to give the Warriors a 1-0 lead.
- 71:20 | Kayla Argen would send a through ball to Caroline Wood, who was able to split between a pair of Warrior defenders. Wood fired a high shot just out of reach of Jackson for the equalizer.
- 96:09 | In the seventh minute of overtime with heavy rain being a factor, Savanna Harrison sent a pass to Kayla Argen who made a quick move to gain space from an ESU defender. Again, the high Golden Bear shot would tip off of Jackson's finger tips and into the net.
