How It Happened
- Bridgewater had chances early and often as Lyric Birkley fired a shot on goal inside of the game's first minute that was saved by Ashlie Wuss. The Eagles continued to fire away until a long throw finally broke the seal as Birkley found the head of Katherine King for the score to make it 1-0 just shy of the ninth minute.

Cassandra Villafan was able to scoop up a pass from Skyler Daum and fired her shot home in the 25th minute to make it 3-0. Ferrum finally got their first shot, but missed wide as BC took the 3-0 lead to the half.
