HOW IT HAPPENED
  • The Red Hawks (13-1-6) opened the game on the front foot, as SAMIRA LUKOVIC saw a header off a corner kick in the sixth minute go just high of the frame. A minute later, SHANNON MULLINS saw an attempt blocked before she put one on frame from distance in the 10th minute that had to be collected by the keeper.

Neither side attempted a shot over the rest of the stanza, with Colby going into the break with the advantage.
  • Montclair began to tilt the game offensively as the second half began, earning four corner kicks over the first 15 minutes, resulting in three shots with two coming from Lukovic. Colby doubled their advantage in the 65th minute, registering a corner kick with a shot opportunity shortly after. The Red Hawks searched to cut into the deficit immediately after, with Mullins pushing a header onto goal following a corner that was saved by the Mules.
  • Prendergast rocketed a shot off the crossbar in the 74th minute, as Bell notched a pair of saves over the next five minutes. ISABELL KRONOW and CARLY GUZZARDO each tallied shot attempts in the 81st minute, with Bell being tested again four minutes later. Kronow saw an attempt go wide as the game came to a close, with Colby advancing to the Second Round.

FROM THE FIELD

"I thought we did a great job creating chances but were a little unlucky against a good team. I'm sad to see this season end as it was a historic and enjoyable season. I appreciate the contributions of our senior class and will remember their character and resiliency as well as their success." - Head Coach Pat Naughter
