USN did much better to possess the ball and get attacking chances, but unable to finish.
Our focus continues to be on finding players on the outside and this game was no different. Our center midfielders, Ruth Boehler '29 and Amelia Wilson '29 both did well to find our outside backs, Indigo Petraglia '29 and CC Cook '29 so we could maintain possession up the field. Layla Jahangir '29, Norah Clarke '29, Lena McLure '30, and Hadley Green '29 all did well to get the ball forward for us from the outside midfield position.
Center backs Elizabeth Geiger '30 and Charlotte Kehler '29 both came up with big saves from the back. Charlotte gave us our two best scoring chances -- one with a free kick from the outside which resulted in a fantastic save from the Harding keeper and one on a long ball to Kenzie Burke '29 who was able to get a strong shot to the near post, ultimately saved by the keeper.
