HIGHLIGHTS
  • The 18th ranked Panthers had control of the game early, but a series of saves from Rebecca Jamieson in the first half kept the game scoreless at the break.
  • Less than two minutes into the second half, the Warhawks struck for the first goal of the contest. 
  • Anila Mantello's free kick from the left side of goal glanced off the crossbar, and Simoes headed it into the back of the net to give the visitors the advantage. 
  • Seven minutes later, the Panthers found an equalizer from Marem Ndiongue.
  • Ndiongue's second goal of the contest, in the 65th minute, pushed Florida Tech to a lead they did not relinquish.
  • Morgan Miller added the game's final tally in the 72nd minute to ice the game.
STATS OF THE GAME
  • Jamieson collected a career-best 11 saves in goal for the Warhawks. Her previous high was nine saves, which she had posted twice in her AUM career.
  • Simoes scored the fourth goal of her career.
  • Florida Tech applied constant pressure in the match, taking 32 total shots.
WORDS FROM THE WARHAWKS

"[Florida Tech is] another tough opponent to play against," said head coach Julianne Herrity. "We knew they were going to come at us and we did our best to absorb that pressure...Becks [Rebecca Jamieson] did a great job in goal. We are disappointed to concede three goals in the second half after going one up with Juju's goal, but we are leaving Florida having learned a lot. We are ready for another week of hard work."
