Stony Brook's best chances for tallies came in the second half. Off a pass from Kate Collins (Essex Fells, N.J.), Aisling Toolan (Dublin, Ireland) gathered the ball and blasted a shot off the left post that rebounded into Boston University keeper Christina Reuter's grasp. In the 78th minute, Kate Collins would have her opportunity to score when she dribbled past a defender and shot the ball off the crossbar.

Stony Brook kept Reuter busy in the crease, making her save 14 shots. Viola had three saves on the day.
