 How It Happened

Nunn got going early as she made a nice save in the fourth minute on a shot from Brynn Howard. The sophomore and the Gator defense kept the Wildcats off the scoreboard in the first half despite Chico State taking four corner kicks in the first 45 minutes.

In the 38th minute, Olivia Chimienti took a shot that bounced off the far-left post and came right back to her, and she then tried to punch it in on the right side but it went just wide of the post. Messenger ended the first half with a shot that narrowly sailed left of the goal as we headed into the half scoreless.

Nunn deflected a shot off the foot of Hannah Pieri in the 61st, but the ball took a lucky bounce off the far post and rolled in for the first goal of the game. Burrus found the equalizer five minutes later as Lauren François sent a free kick into the box, which bounced around in front of the goal before Burrus netted it to make it 1-1. Chico State bounced back late, and Jiana Martin scored the game winner in the 88th as she punched it past the diving Nunn.
