The first half saw the Broncos keep pressure on the Trailblazers' half, putting up 13 first-half shots to their two.

The second half was another stalemate as the green and gold kept the pressure yet couldn't quite find the back of the net, outshooting MCLA 12-1 in the second half.
-
Freshman Vanessa Sanchez (Jurupa Valley, CA) would be tested late in the second half, making an incredible tip save to send a long shot from MCLA over the bar.

Sanchez recorded her third clean sheet of the year, facing only three total shots that night.
-
The backline of freshmen Ava Britsch (Burlington, NJ), Ava Battista (Scarsdale, NY) , sophomore Ayla Vorisek (Delhi, NY), and freshman Kaitlyn Hines (Staten Island, NY) had a great match, stifling the opponent's attack all night.
-
The Broncos left it until the 85th minute when freshman Lizzetta Myers put away the match winner, her first in her green and gold career.

That marked Myers' fifth goal of the season, as the Broncos are 6-0-2 in their last eight matches
