Wheaton took an early lead tonight, just 5:30 into the match, when junior Katelyn Kishkunas put the ball into the back of the net off of a free kick.

Wheaton held its two-goal advantage for the remainder of the first half. In the 75th minute, Orewiler passed the ball from the edge of the penalty box to senior Brittany Bergh who was five yards in front of the net and blasted the ball in to increase the hosts' lead to 3-0.
