LAST TIME OUT
Montclair hosted Stevens last Thursday, where they drew the Ducks 1-1. Montclair controlled possession through the first 15 minutes, generating the lone shot of that stretch as ISABELL KRONOW put one on target, but the Stevens goalkeeper made the save. Following a yellow card against the Red Hawks in the midfield, Stevens capitalized. A quick passing sequence into the box set up a shot that found the back of the net at 22:44, giving the Ducks a 1-0 lead. Montclair pressed late in the half, recording two shots in the final five minutes, but both were stopped, and Stevens carried the 1-0 advantage into the break. The second half featured back-and-forth action. Stevens put three shots on frame within the first 10 minutes, but goalkeeper SALANGE BELL came up big with three strong saves to keep the Red Hawks within one. In the 80th minute, Montclair broke through. After a foul in the box, MACKENZIE ALBERT converted from the penalty spot to knot the score at 1-1. The Red Hawks pushed for a winner, firing three shots in the final six minutes, but Stevens held firm, and the match ended in a draw.
