HOW IT HAPPENED

1st Half

Less than 90 seconds later, Stephanie Quintanilla found herself in open space on the right wing and ripped a shot far post to give the Hawks a 2-0 lead just 3:38 into the contest.

The Hawks attack slowed through the middle of the half as chances were not completed.  Susan Balladares would hit the post and bounced to Sabrina Henderson's foot sailing it just wide right.

Fatigue settled in for the Lions as the Hawks scored four goals in the final six minutes of the half.  Abaigeal Pecksent a through ball from midfield finding Hope Kohl on a run for the 3-0 advantage.

Just two minutes into her action, Monae Moore found the back of the net for her first career goal.  Sabrina Henderson dribbled the attack down the right wing and slid the pass back across the box finding Moore for the goal.

With just over a minute left in the half, Marissa Speary beat a defender on the left wing finding the far post to give the Hawks a 6-0 lead heading into the half.

2nd Half

Chowan continued with fresh legs off the bench to continue to gain experience for the young team.  In the 63' Hope Kohl searched for her second goal of the contest as the initial shot was saved but was not corralled as Kohl would tap in for the goal.

The Hawks maintained possession for most of the half as Lincoln registered all three shots in the second half.  Chowan tacked on the final goal of the match in the 90' as a corner kick was cleared out by the Lions' defense but found the foot of Sierra Gonzalez at the top of the box.  Gonzalez would finish the strike far post for the score.
