Gwynedd Valley, Pa. - On a cold and rainy day, Philadelphia Biblical University fall 1-6 to Gwynedd-Mercy College.

The match was originally scheduled to be played at PBU, but the rainy weather made PBU's grass field unplayable so it was moved to Gwynedd-Mercy.

PBU's women would resist for another 15 minutes before two more quick strikes would make it 4-0 before halftime. Michelle Pool and Gwen Conte scored only 3:24 apart. Pool's goal came in the 24th minute after her shot gratuituosly bounced off a Crimson Eagle defender and found its way across the goal line. Conte scored in the 28th minute from the penalty spot after a foul in the box.

There would be no let up in the second frame. Gwynedd's Gwen Conte scored her 2nd goal of the game just over 4 minutes after the restart, putting away a scrum inside the box.

The Griffins' last goal would come in the 68th minute. Brigid Dowling would finish off a cross from Conte to give Gwynedd-Mercy a commanding 6-0 lead.

Never one's to lie down; the Crimson Eagles would eventually find the back of the net. Naomi Collip would score her first collegiate goal ever in the 73rd minute. Chelsea Troyer put in a beautiful goalmouth cross that Collip got to the end of.

PBU's goal would come off their only shot of the game. Gwynedd-Mercy took 29 shots.
