HOW IT HAPPENED:

• Leopards freshman goalkeeper Juliana Heaton (Swansea, Mass.) made three first half saves as the two teams went into the intermission deadlocked at 0-0.
• Both teams had shot opportunities early in the second half, but it was the Colonels who put up the first goal. Curry's McKenna Reid had a free kick opportunity that found it's way through multiple players in front of the net, beating Heaton to the left side to give the home team a 1-0 advantage in the 54^th minute.
• The Colonels kept up the attack following the goal, but Heaton and the Leopards were able to keep it at a one goal deficit.
• The score remained the same until the 81^st minute, when a foul in front of the net gave Curry's Samantha Borges a penalty kick opportunity. Borges sent a shot to the left that just made it past the hands of Heaton, giving the Colonels a 2-0 lead that they held on to for the rest of the match.
