Lynchburg led at the half 3-0 on goals from Andrea Fleming (2) and Kara Culkin. The Hornets had a shutout going in the second half until junior Julie Drake (San Jose, CA/Willow Glen) scored on a pass from Beth Farnsworth '05 (Grafton, MA/Grafton)with 18 minutes left in the game. Morgan Crandall, Ariana Kleeman, Laura Christianson, and Andrea Fleming each added goals for Lynchburg in the second half. Fleming's goal with five minutes left in the game gave her the hat trick.

Coach Jennifer Crispen said, ?We played a stronger second half allowing Lynchburg only one defensive corner. In the first half goalkeeper Jenn Wiley made two incredible saves on high balls.?
