How They Scored

SF State played a solid first half and played to a scoreless draw at the half. AJ Tanner had an opportunity in the 27th minute but the Tritons made a team save.

However, the nationally-ranked Tritons made adjustments and came out on the attack. In the 48th minute, Mika Celeste's corner kick found Kameryn Hoban, whose attempt was blocked. Natalie Saddic was there with the rebound to give UCSD the lead. Celeste scored in the 64th minute on an unassisted cornerk kick.

After a Gators free kick was cleared, UC San Diego countered in the 67th minute. Goalkeeper Sommer Harrington came off her line and out of the box to try and clear the ball but collided with Emily Killeen. Harrington was shown a red card and Hayley Garriott came on as the Gators were forced to play a player down. Celeste took the free kick from the right side and her shot went upper shelf for the Tritons' third goal of the day.

Glory Smith had a shot in the 76th minute for the Gators that was saved.

In Goal

Harrington allowed two goals and made six saves in 66 minutes of work before receiving the red card. Garriott made one save and allowed a goal in the remaining 23:53. UCSD's Angelica Ramos stopped the only ball that she faced.
