Highlights
How it Happened
Stonehill wasted little time jumping out to an early lead, as senior
Annie Renz raced to the end line and sent a cross into the box from the far side of the pitch. Cassidy redirected the pass into the back of the net for her sixth goal of the season at the 8:29 mark of the opening half.
Following a back-and-forth remainder of the first half, the Skyhawks erupted for three goals in a five-minute span early in the second half. Foley capitalized on a Sharks turnover to net her fifth goal of the season before Cranston added her second goal of the campaign off an assist from O'Toole.
Just four minutes later, in the 55th minute, Cassidy struck again, recording her second goal of the afternoon to extend Stonehill's advantage to 4-0.
In the final minute of regulation, Newell delivered a free kick into the box, where Fitzgerald capitalized with her second career goal at the 89:26 mark to cap the scoring and seal the 5-0 victory for the Skyhawks.
