GAME SUMMARY

Madison Montgomery tried her luck a minute later, but Havrilla made a stop. Iona's sophomore keeper would make another stop before watching another attempt sail over the net in the 42^nd minute. The two teams entered the half scoreless, but Northern Arizona had a hefty advantage in the shots and time of possession columns.
