Fredonia State got on the scoreboard first as Kristie Kleine scored the first of her two first half goals five minutes into the game. The Blue Devils would add two additional goals on top of Kleine's pair and take a 4-0 lead into halftime. 

The second half was much improved for the Soaring Eagles as they settled down and adjusted to the speed of the game, but it was too little, too late for the Purple and Gold. They were able hold the Blue Devils to one goal in the second half, but they could not produce any offense themselves as they came up empty on their three corner kicks and their three shots in the final 45 minutes.
