The Yotes (1-0) broke the stalemate with a three-goal flurry in the second half, as
Madison Glascock made a great run down the right side and played a perfect ball inside the box to the foot of
Emma Powley for the go-ahead goal. C of I put the game away with two goals in a 30-second span, as Aspden made a long run in the 70th minute and blasted home a low shot to the right corner of the net. Off the restart, Coyle intercepted a pass and used a 1-v-1 move to elude the SNC keeper for her second goal of the day.
Keepers
Kylee Atkins and
Shae Waters split time in goal for the Lady Yotes in the victory.
