- AUM would march down the field in the 14' minute of the game when Allison Singleterry found the ball at her feet and attempted a shot from inside the box. The chance was met by the legs of the Valdosta State defender, and the ball was cleared away.

- Valdosta State would come out with a flurry of scoring chances and were able to capitalize in the 46' minute when Tennant headed home a pass from Lewis to put the Blazers up by three.    
- A fourth goal was in the cards for Valdosta State when Lewis took a shot right in front of Kistler who stopped the initial attempt, but the rebound was put into the back of the net by Lewis on her second attempt.  
- The Blazers would add on to their four-goal lead in the 75' minute when Lewis completed her hat trick by bending a ball from the right side of the box past the outstretched Kistler and into the left side of the net.
