The Generals (9-0-1, 7-0) out-shot the Marlins (8-5-2, 6-2), 15-6, and held a 6-5 advantage in corner kicks.

Junior keeper Addie Healy (Waterford, Va. / Woodgrove) saw all 90 minutes of action in goal and recorded four saves for her eighth consecutive shutout. Gerhart also played the entire match in net and totaled three saves.
