Match Summary
Can we all agree that this was just not our night, not our best look, and let it go at that? After all, we had 0 attempts shot-wise, while they put up a paltry 38 shots, 23 on goal, with scoring commencing in the 5th minute. Ava tallied 2 memorable bang-bang stops of point-blank shots with 7 minutes left in the half, but Chiles led by 4 at the break. They scored the mercy-rule 8th goal with 15 minutes left in the game. The lone upsides?: Ava's remarkable 15 saves throughout kept us on the field for a longer stretch (though her heroics did prolong our misery...), and Gabrielle caught the eye of the coaches as Player of the Game.
