Florida State held a 9-4 edge in shots in the first half.

The second half Boston College's offense started to connect. Rosie DiMartino had a chance early in the half off a nice pass from Stephanie McCaffrey. DiMartino's right-footed shot was handled by the FSU goalkeeper Cassie Miller.

Later in the half, Lauren Bernard ripped a shot off the corner of the cross bar. The Eagles had two corner kicks andMeg MacDonald had a chance just outside the box. The ball took a tough bounce so MacDonald could not get enough leg on the shot.
