Junior Erin Casey scored her second goal of the season in the 43rd minute (unassisted) to give the Sea Gulls a 2-0 halftime advantage.

In the second half, Weaver added her second goal of the game at the 57th minute, off an assist from sophomore Dana Passucci, to give the Sea Gulls a 3-0 lead. Junior Robyn Bishop and freshman Ally Olewine scored the final two goals, both unassisted, at the 66th and 84th minutes, respectively.
