The Generals (13-1, 6-0) tallied the first three goals of the game to take a 3-0 lead at 23:03 before Guilford got on board at 21:49 (3-1) when senior attacker Caryn Washington (Baltimore, Md./Park) scored unassisted. W&L then used a four-goal spurt, including a pair of scores from Evans to take a 7-1 advantage at 13:48.
